Sanipull®
Available pre-cut, ready to install or in bulk form. Sanipull's family of cleanable replacement ribbon replacement pulls for over bed lights and nurse calls reduce the risk of pathogens being spread by staff, patients or residents and visitors. The innovative Sanipull design also protects light fixtures from over-force pull damage. This switch saving benefit is a big hit with maintenance departments! Study and experience in over 1000 facilities have shown that Sanipull cleanable pulls along with good housekeeping practices help to reduce hospital infection rates by up to 50%. Your facility can reduce infection transmission proactively by retrofitting with Sanipul. Avoid the turmoil and expense associated with nosocomial infections! Cling, string, bead or ball chain and nylon cord pulls are unsanitary traditional pull solutions still in common use for patient control of bed lights and nurse calls. It should be no surprise that these pulls cannot be disinfected! The Sanipull system provides a practical and hygienic solution that is appreciated by front line nurses, housekeeping staff, maintenance personnel and infection control professionals. Sanipull is a superior replacement pull compared to retrofit plastic pull cords. Plastic cords are cleanable and functional, however they are not accessible for many physically-challenged people. Furthermore, their very strong, small-diameter profile creates a strangulation hazard. For a full itemized comparison see the Cleanable Pull Comparison Matrix. They are designed for hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, retirement homes and other facilities where the prevention of cross-infection is important. Traditional pulls on lights and nurse calls are high risk touch surfaces that can increase facility-acquired infection.
