Based in Michigan, the hospital provides leading care to over 34,000 American veterans, improving their health and wellbeing as they return to civilian life. When the hospital undertook an extensive refurbishment of its washrooms, it knew it needed a tap that would support its infection control regimes and keep patients and staff safe while ensuring it met important healthcare guidelines.
Delivering a safe environment
A spokesperson from the facilities team at the hospital, said: “Our philosophy here is preventative healthcare – which we believe is crucial for maintaining good health for our patients. This extends to every aspect of how we deliver care – from our healthcare professionals through to how we run and operate the hospital. So when it came to upgrading our washrooms, we knew we needed to specify products that would support our stringent infection control and safety measures.” Through collaboration with Rada, the facilities team at the hospital specified Intelligent Care. The taps were chosen for their performance, safety and infection control credentials. The digital tap is ideal for healthcare spaces as it minimises the risk of infection through non-touch controls and digitally set hygiene measures, including thermal disinfection and duty flushing. Its vivid digital controls combined with its sleek curved design make it easy to clean, while the digital thermostatic mixing valve always delivers water at a safe temperature.
