About Hy-genie
Hy-genie is an active monitoring system that tracks and records the usage of sanitation stations across hospitals. The system is helping healthcare organisations to reduce healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) and improve patient safety through better hand hygiene. The system consists of 3 distinct hardware components: a beacon incorporated into the NHS staff ID badge, a sensor adjacent to wall-mounted hand gel or soap dispensers, and a centrally located base station. When a healthcare worker uses a Hy-genie station, the system communicates this information back to a dashboard where the user can then compare their hand hygiene compliance against their own performance targets. Working closely with Alder Hey Hospital, Hy-genie has rapidly developed a “lite” system to help healthcare institutions’ fight against COVID-19. Estimates show that if successfully installed into all UK hospitals and used effectively, the Hy-genie system could prevent up to 300,000 deaths per year.
