Eldercare

One of the foremost marketing challenges in dealing with eldercare facilities is dealing with urine odor and staining. Today, an estimated 1 in 10 adults over the age of 65 are incontinent.  In addition to the issues involving patient embarrassment and loss of dignity, there is the additional challenge of attracting new residents to the facility. Eliminating urine odor helps to create and maintain a positive impression for families, prospective residents, patients, staff and visitors.

 Urine and body fluids are commonly found on surfaces throughout eldercare settings.  Urine can be found on privacy curtains, remote controls, bedding, door handles, furniture and other surfaces routinely touched by healthcare workers, patients and visitors.  The proteins found in urine and other body discharges, are the growth medium for dangerous disease causing microorganisms.  Unless urine, body fluids and their proteins are destroyed, microorganisms can flourish and spread throughout eldercare facilities.  When used by eldercare facilities, Urine Off destroys urine deposits, leaving a clean, hygienic surface.

Using Urine Off’s specially engineered Urine Finder UV Inspection Lights, housekeepers can find urine and body fluid deposits then remove them with Urine Off.  This simple procedure saves time and money and aids in infection control.  Housekeepers can remove urine, soils and microorganisms, more efficiently and effectively, resulting in “clean you can see” hygienic conditions.  Urine Finder lights make infection control a simple, verifiable process for eldercare facilities, reducing patient fears and simplifying the training of environmental services team members.

Because the damaging uric acid crystals found in urine are not removed during the average cleaning process, corrosion of metal and steel surfaces such as bed frames and wheelchairs occurs, resulting in the need to replace corroded items.   In addition, healthcare facilities typically use strong, toxic chemicals to sanitize or disinfect patient rooms and treatment areas.  These caustic cleaning agents degrade surfaces, eventually necessitating the replacement of bed rails, furnishings and other assets. Urine Off eliminates the uric acid crystals that can cause harmful corrosion, saving healthcare facilities the cost of replacing these assets. Because Urine Off is non-toxic and non-caustic, it is not irritating to the skin and membranes of patients, visitors or the facility staff.
