What Is GermZAPP
GermZAPP is an automated, real time, hand wash education system with audio and visual prompts for proper timing and technique of Hand Hygiene per CDC recommendations.
Our over the sink units log this information with a timestamp per wash event , and record it into a database for internal review and quality assessment for improvement.
Resultant data can be used to prove compliance and make improvement plans per regulatory agencies, thus making compliance easier with the ever increasing effort to monitor and improve Hand Hygiene.
Hand Hygiene simplified and revolutionized
Following guidelines from the WHO and CDC in 2023, the “Association of Professionals for Infection Control” ( APIC) “Practice Guidance Committee” developed a “Hand Hygiene Toolkit” as a resource for healthcare providers to aid in improving hand hygiene in different settings.
Their objective is to provide a user-friendly toolkit that equips healthcare providers with essential tools and educational materials to educate and engage users in the critical importance of hand hygiene.
GermZAPP was intentionally designed to support the spirit of this APIC toolkit by providing automated data collection. Our device can be used with its own database or can be merged with other compliance software. We provide a cost-effective, and user friendly approach to decreasing germ transmission. GermZAPP objectively and affordablycollects this data while improving facility health and finances.
