Hospitals and Patients Benefit from UVC Robots

July 21, 2020 by John Andros

UVC Robots are becoming more popular as a powerful germ killing machine that provides important health benefits to many industries.  The healthcare industry in particular is realizing great benefits by incorporating UV robots as part of the sterilization process in hospitals.  UV robots equipped with high-quality UVC germicidal lamps are programmed to disinfect patient rooms in between patients to thoroughly sterilize and kill any lingering viruses and bacteria. 

Hospitals that incorporate UV light technology to sterilize rooms in addition to their regular cleaning routines will provide many benefits to patients, staff and to the hospital. Hospital acquired infections are more common than many people realize with about 1 in 25 people contracting an infection due to a hospital stay.  This can be devastating for the patient and lead to longer hospital stays.  

UVC radiation is proven to effectively kill almost all forms of harmful pathogens including superbugs like Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE).  UVC robots are even shown to effectively kill these resistant superbugs when in the line of sight and also when the virus is hiding behind objects at a rate of 99.9%.  

The success of UVC robots depends entirely on the quality of the UVC sterilization lamps on the unit.  Using high quality UVC lamps is key to realizing maximum benefit and germ killing effectiveness.
