UV-Sanitation-Disinfection Lighting

Elderly patients, in conjunction with a weakened immune system, are at greater risk for contracting MRSA due to a history of taking antibiotics. Hospital trips or stays in long-term care facilities may lead to MRSA contracts. Before they show any symptoms of the infection, it may also spread to patients, other residents or visitors.  Keep your residents safe and well in your facilities using Helo fixtures and Sentry mobile devices with Puro™ through Citra.

UV-C Technology

Puro’s product lines, Helo and Sentry Mobile, powered by Violet DefenseTM technology, represent a significant advance in the defense of germicides. Citra uses Puro’s solutions for broad-spectrum light like germicidal UV-C, UV-B and antibacterial UV-A.

UV-C is most generally referred to as germicidal UV, capable of killing bacteria, viruses, mold and fungus. Many professionals in the assisted living industry choose UV-C disinfection technology to kill bacteria on commonly touched surfaces. With UV lighting technology in the senior living community, you can ensure employees, seniors, and visitors that they are in a safe setting. With Puro’s disinfection lighting products:

  • It kills 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses
  • Fixtures can be mounted strategically on walls or be mobile to be moved from room to room
  • Safest solution on the market with automatic sensor shut off
  • Xenon lamps require less energy, which saves money, and no maintenance

Today, with viruses threatening our society, it is crucial for the assisted living industry to be alert and proactive in order to play their part in keeping their community safe. There are hundreds to thousands of people that can come and go within a facility which can become a common breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. It’s important to improve the standard of cleanliness all while using solutions that do not add as a health hazard. Citra is thrilled to be in the business of protecting you and your loved ones through quality UV lighting by PuroTM.
