Shipping Powered Protection for Patients and iPhone
Salt Lake City, UT - May 27, 2019 - Code, an innovator in healthcare automation and mobile technology, is shipping the market’s first fully-enclosed battery case for the iPhone 7 and 8. Designed for healthcare, the CR7018 mobile case is exclusively built with PVC-free CodeShield® disinfectant-ready plastics and Dragontrail™ glass. This completely sealed enclosure not only protects the iPhone from repeated chemical wipe downs, but promotes a higher level of patient safety, removing access for germs to hitch a ride from one patient room to another. It’s the ultimate protection.
According to the CDC, every day, one in 31 patients will contract an infectious disease during a hospital visit. Many of these are caused by strong bacteria that can lead to serious complications like sepsis, or even death1. Mobile technology at the point of care has historically been unable to stand up to strict cleaning and disinfecting processes. This meant devices would get damaged under chemical exposure, or worse, they weren’t being cleaned properly, contributing to the spread of infectious disease. The CR7018 solves this problem by protecting the mobile devices from damage while promoting easy, thorough disinfection.
"The CR7000 allows healthcare leaders to protect their investments but more importantly their patients," said Jennifer Braun, Mobile Program Manager. "Healthcare facilities have been searching for an enterprise mobility solution that accommodates their workflows and meets infection control standards—they’re looking for the CR7000 product line."
