H. John Heinz III Dept of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Pittsburgh, PA

Recently the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Pittsburgh PA placed an order for 1000 SafeGrip™ wands. In addition to reducing the transmission of deadly pathogens, the wands can actually make it easier to operate the curtains. When we asked how they liked the wands their response was “we love them!” The wands are being used wherever they have hospital privacy curtains.

Here are some of the Key Features of our SafeGrip™ wand

 

  • This EPA registered product is the first ever antimicrobial copper wand.
  • Made with CuVerro® bactericidal copper which continuously kills greater than 99.9% of bacteria* within 2 hours of exposure.
  • The wand can be quickly attached to the lead edge of any curtain and allows for easy curtain operation in any healthcare setting.

*Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Methicillin- Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Escherichia coli O157:H7, Vancomycin- Resistant enterococci (VRE), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
