Smart Glass Tech has successfully completed installation of PriWatt® switchable glass panels for North York General Hospital in Ontario, Canada. This hospital, affiliated with the University of Toronto, stands as one of Canada’s foremost community academic hospitals.
Hospitals and healthcare facilities today are challenged to meet two vital goals: Improving healthcare outcomes and upholding patient satisfaction. And as hospital staff well know, fabric curtains provide little privacy or protection because they are not soundproof and collect germs that result in cross-contamination and hospital acquired infections (HAIs). Exterior window treatments, such as blinds and shades, attract dust and contagions as well. This can compromise patient and staff health, and put service reimbursements and hospital revenue at risk.
PriWatt® products offer game changing advantages. Windows, doors, walls, and partitions provide complete visual and enhanced audible privacy, as well as extreme infection control, while creating more comfortable healing environments that generate high patient ratings.
Observation Without Contamination
The rise of cross-contamination, especially from highly contagious pathogens like MRSA, poses a growing challenge in hospitals. Switchable privacy glass presents a significant advantage, allowing hospital staff to observe patients effortlessly by toggling a switch, eliminating the risk of cross-contamination from infectious diseases.
Enhancing Patient Privacy
Switchable electric glass brings about improved patient privacy in medical settings. The smart glass panels can seamlessly transition from clear to opaque, ensuring heightened privacy levels in examination rooms, patient quarters, and operating theaters.
A Hygienic Substitute for Curtains
Switchable glass proves to be a straightforward and easy-to-maintain solution, serving as a hygienic alternative to traditional hospital curtains and blinds. Unlike curtains, which can harbor harmful germs on their surfaces and are challenging to sterilize, switchable glass offers a cleaner and more efficient option.
The antibacterial properties of Smart Glass not only present a hygienic alternative to traditional hospital curtains but also extend to curtains in residential and office settings, without compromising on safety.
Smart Glass Tech is a leading innovative company offering the widest variety of design options when it comes to superior quality PriWatt® switchable privacy glass products such and self-adhesive PDLC (Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystal) film and laminated PDLC switchable glass.
