A Pop-up UV Hygiene Training Station for Hand Hygiene Training of Healthcare Professionals and Staff.

- +

hand hygiene training kit for carehomes

 

A British made, professional grade, UV light based training system and the principle go-to solution for Carehomes, Resthomes, Nursing Homes, Residential Homes and Day Centres.

CQC Regulations require Hand Hygiene training for all healthcare and support staff to ensure compliance with IPC protocols.  This kit will help you achieve this.

Based on state-of-the-art UV GERM Hygiene Training Lotion, hand washing training can be delivered and re-delivered with this low-cost, portable training solution based on our SHOWBOX PRO; a next-generation, lightweight, table top ‘dark theatre’, which allows you to view residual UV GERM simulation particles remaining on hands after washing. Perfect for training in brighter rooms and areas which cannot be darkened easily.

Plus we now provide the unique option of a New COMBINED HAND HYGIENE version which covers ALL core hand-hygiene competences of all medical and healthcare professionals.

  • Hand Washing
  • Hand Rub Application
  • Glove Hygiene Safety

At the heart of the SHOWBOX PRO is the integral GLOWTEC UV PRO Forensic (LED based) UV Light system, which properly activates the microscopic ‘germ simulation’ particles used in UV GERM Hygiene Training products, so what is invisible in normal light, suddenly glows brightly under its UV Forensic light.

SHOWBOX PRO is made from a light-absorbing material which means the further in you place your hands, the darker it becomes, making it suitable for use even in the brightest of lighting conditions and its seriously lightweight at only 950 grams and 380 x 330 x 330mm when erected.  After use, the ‘pop-up’ style SHOWBOX PRO simply folds flat for easy storage and transportation.

Comes complete with simple instructions and handy guides for effective hand hygiene training.

There is so much mis-information online about UV light (Blacklight) we’ll clear up a few main points here…

Is brighter really better?

No.  Absolutely not.  UV is invisible to the human eye so ideally you should see nothing!  What you do see is visible ‘interference’ light (known as spill) and is a bi-product of poor quality inferior UV LEDs.  This bright, purple glare is not UV and only serves to illuminate the search area, actually making it harder to see the actual fluoresce you are looking for!

The UV rule of thumb is:  The brighter it is, the worse it is!

This is why our UV PRO range are made with a special UV PRO filter which removes all visible light and only lets the invisible UV light through.  This produces great, professional results.

The more LEDs the better?

Again. Absolutely not.  The greater the number of inferior (cheap) LEDs the torch has, the more visible interference light it produces and the worse the result.

Tip:  Avoid any UV Torch with more than 9 LEDS.

Does frequency matter?

Yes. The frequency of UV light emitted determines the quality of results obtained.  There is a sweet-spot for UV which is between 365nm and 385nm.  However, to manufacture LEDs capable of emitting in this frequency range is far more expensive.  Cheap UV torches use inferior quality Chinese made LEDs emitting in the range of 390 – 410nm.  At this range the UV light is a very poor quality and the visible light output is at its highest (see here for more about UV Blacklight).

GLOWTEC UV PRO Forensic Torches are made using high quality KOREAN made 365-385nm UV LEDs which peak at 380nm with a much lower visible light output. This provides the best balance of quality, performance and price with excellent value for money.

We have have gone to great lengths to ensure our new formula, premium grade, training lotion is as skin-friendly and as hypoallergenic as possible.

As such both UV GERM Training lotion and Hand-Rub Training Gel do NOT contain any harmful Parabens, PEGs, Phthalates or Sulfates. It is also Alcohol-Free, Fragrance-Free and Gluten-Free.

However, we cannot guarantee that someone, somewhere won’t have a reaction to the product.  For this reason, before training, we recommend attendees are asked if they have any history of skin reactions or known allergies and tested for sensitivity. In the extremely rare occurrence of someone taking a reaction, then simply discontinue use for that individual.

Avoid contact with the eyes. If irritation occurs discontinue use. Do not use on broken or irritated skin.

Always test for sensitivity before use. In the extremely rare event of a reaction occurring, discontinue use.

UV GERM Training Lotion is also suitable for use on most non-porous surfaces for hygiene training and cross-contamination demonstration purposes.

This product is considered safe and non-toxic for COSHH purposes. However this product is not classed as Food Safe and is therefore unsuitable for use in areas designated for food production or food preparation.
