A system and method are disclosed that are able to identify and distinguish persons as soon as they enter or exit a hospital room or any room occupied by a patient who is receiving medical or dental services. After a person who has entered a hospital room has been identified, this person may be required to sanitize his/her hands in order to comply with an established protocol. Therefore, a second identification may take place at the hand sanitization station. The system may confirm that the same person was identified by a first read by the RFID antennas upon entering the room and by a second read by the RFID antennas upon completing the hand sanitization procedure. If no hand sanitization takes place, visual and/or auditory stimuli may be generated as a reminder. Persons and their hand sanitization performances may be used diagnostically to identify and remedy potential contamination events and/or determine the source and mode of transmission of a nosocomial infection. This information may be returned in real-time as well as stored in a database.
A system for installation into a room for occupancy by at least one patient that is receiving medical services, the room including a bed, examination table or examination chair, the room further including an entrance and at least one hand sanitization station, the system for determining whether a person, who is wearing an identification tag with radio frequency identification (RFID) data, is complying with a hand sanitization protocol before or after the person enters the room and, optionally, using this data with information regarding the person's position to identify and remedy potential contamination events, the system comprising:
A method for determining whether a person, who is wearing an identification tag with radio frequency identification (RFID) data, is complying with a hand sanitization protocol after the person enters a room,
