The use of Ultraviolet (UV) light technology is rapidly becoming one of the most effective adjunct cleaning technologies in the fight against healthcare associated infections.  Scientists and engineers are continuing to develop this technology as a means to combat pathogens such as MRSA, Ebola and C-diff in healthcare facilities. This webinar explores:

 

1. How UV light technology is being used as a protocol for surface decontamination

2. Use guidelines that are currently being developed

3.How environmental services leaders can begin to build a business case for the technology

 

But there are challenges to the use of this technology, particularly time constraints and financial considerations. You will hear about these challenges from three professionals who will also discuss current research studies underway to benchmark UV devices, the efficacy of the technology, and how to craft a successful business case. Lastly you’ll discover how one facility was able to take advantage of a pandemic to fund the acquisition of the technology.
