“Should my organization be using Body Temperature Scanners?”
Body Temperature Kiosks and thermal temperature scanners are very popular solutions for screening the masses, but one of the most popular questions we get at BTK is, “Are they really worth the investment?”
To help you know if body temperature kiosks are right fit for you and your team, here are Three Important Ways Your Organization Will Benefit From Using Body Temperature Scanners.
Keeping Your Employees and Families Safe
As noted by most qualified health care organizations and professionals, social distancing and good hygiene are key to mitigating the spread of viruses like Influenza and Coronavirus. As noted by Harvard Health Publishing at Harvard Medical School, the number one way to preliminary detect people who are contagious is by taking their temperature and checking for a fever. Likewise, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggests that all people maintain a safe social distancing range of at least 6 feet (≈2 meters).
With that in mind, the big question is, How do you take someones temperature and still maintain a safe social distance for your employees? The correct answer, BTK Zero Contact, Fully-Automated, Body Temperature Kiosks.
