KwickScreens are really versatile and

KwickScreen is an ingenious way
of managing space within the
healthcare and longterm care envi-
ronments. Available as fixed or por-
table and in a number of finishes to
enable privacy, display messages
or images while keeping patients
engaged in unit activity and isolat -
ing non-airborne infections.

high tech rollable material technol-
ogy that enables it to be incredibly
retractable and portable. This Rola-
Tube technology is new and used
across many industries, including
NASA.

Infection Control
®
KwickScreen® provides the solution
• Allows separation of infected areas within a unit
• Isolates non-airborne infections in units
• Provides visibility and isolation
• Improves hand hygiene compliance and prevents cross-bed traffic
• Low levels of patient stigmatisation
• Hygiene units for hand gel, gloves and gowns available
• Easy to clean, small storage footprint when not in use
Clinical trials have shown that
hand-hygiene compliance.Dr. Peter Wilson, Consultant Micro-Biologist at University College London Hospital, NHS Foundation Trust
With a lack of side rooms available in
many hospitals, outbreaks of non-
airborne infections including MRSA
and Norovirus can prove a costly
problem. Often infected patients
don’t need to be placed in side
rooms and only require a physical
barrier between bed spaces to pre-
vent transmission through droplets.
The KwickScreen provides both a
physical barrier around the infected
patient and a psychological trigger
that has been proven to improve
hand hygiene compliance.
With no reimbursement for HospitalAcquired Infections, Healthcare facilities have been forced to reevaluate their use of curtains.

A pediatric patient would rather be surrounded by cartoons
than a faded yellow hospital curtain. A pain management or
a chemo/dialysis patient would rather see a tranquil lake or
forest instead of a fading curtain.
• At the Olympic village in London for the Athlete’s Heatlh Clinics• By the Dutch government for mobile Dental clinics• In over 30 Hospitals that are phasing out curtains because it has been proven that curtains aid in the rapid spread of Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs)• For Physical Therapy units , so as to divide for Male and Female patients.
