The study indicated that the use of Surfacide UV-C light robots along with proper scripting dramatically improved overall average quarterly patient experience scores across all four hospitals, anywhere from 5.5 points to 17.5 points
A new whitepaper “Emerging Best Practices In Response To Evolving Patient Perceptions Of Clean: A Dramatic Shift In Patient Perceptions Of Hospital Cleanliness,” released by Press Ganey in conjunction with Compass One Healthcare, features Surfacide UV-C light technology.
Surfacide is featured in the white paper from Press Ganey and Compass One Healthcare for improving disinfection efficacy and patient satisfaction. The white paper is in response to the dramatic shift in patient perceptions of hospital cleanliness
The use of Surfacide UV-C light robots along with proper scripting dramatically improved overall average quarterly patient experience scores across all four hospitals, anywhere from 5.5 points to 17.5 points
Surfacide’s patented UV-C light technology was used in a proof-of-concept study at four different hospitals to help create “memorable cleaning events” for patients and provide more opportunities for EVS staff-patient interaction. The goal was to positively impact both the reality and the perception of cleanliness in hospital environments and the results of the study were dramatic across all four hospitals. The quarterly patient satisfaction scores around cleanliness increased anywhere from 5.5 to 17.5 points and the whitepaper’s findings underscore the important correlation between whether the patient perceives their environment as clean and how they rate the patient experience.
“In today’s landscape, patient perception of cleanliness is more scrutinized than ever before and in order for hospitals to keep their patient satisfaction scores high, they need to utilize advanced technologies in addition to standard cleaning protocols,” said Surfacide Founder and CEO Gunner Lyslo. “We’re proud to be profiled in this whitepaper from such prestigious industry leaders.”
As the whitepaper outlines, hospitals need to “Leverage the 5 Pillars of Clean”, a multi-factorial approach that has been proven to be successful to facilities across the country.
