The first-of-its-kind housing offers maximum protection against the spread of infection. Flexible user-selectable feedback modes are designed for around-the-clock use, ensuring workers receive feedback in the quiet of the night without disturbing patients — or during the noisiest day shift. And a built-in lamp eliminates the need to turn on room lights in the middle of the night.
