What is Vidashield?
Medical professionals protect themselves with personal protective equipment every day. In any medical or dental facility where there are numerous people being treated, the risk for transmitting bioaerosols increases. Bioaerosols are resistant organisms that are transmitted in the air such as Staphylococcus or C. diff bacteria. At any time, there can be millions of bacteria or viruses in the air or on surfaces. Vidashield is an environmental purification system that treats the air and reduces bacteria and viruses that are airborne.
We care about our patients, and patient safety is our priority. Our team has taken many infection control measures to ensure our office is as safe as possible, and to prevent the spread of COVID-19. We follow the strict guidelines provided by the ADA, CDC, and OSHA, and are constantly monitoring and updating our protocol as needed. Installing Vidashield at our facility is another way to keep our patients safe, and help clean the air to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
How does Vidashield work?
Vidashield is an antimicrobial environmental air purification system that is easily installed in the ceiling. This system uses UVGI, or ultraviolet germicidal irradiation combined with air circulation and light to purify the air. Vidashield pulls air in from the environment, and treats the air by removing bacteria or fungi. This results in clean air for our patients and staff.
How can Vidashield help protect you from Covid-19?
The quality of the air we breathe plays a role in our health. Bacteria and viruses can be spread when they are airborne, and clean air can help prevent the spread of disease. Installing Vidashield in our office is another measure we have taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Keeping our patients safe and providing cleaner air is important. We want our patients to feel comfortable and safe when they visit our office, and purifying the air is another way we can protect the health of our patients.
