Australia’s most trusted air purifiers for aged care facilities.

As we age, our immune system becomes weaker and less able to fight infections. This makes adults living in Residential Aged Care Facilities highly susceptible to respiratory infections, particularly when airborne viruses circulate in closed indoor spaces.

Pathogen free, clean air is essential in reducing the risk of respiratory infections spreading. Using an air purifier with a medical-grade HEPA filter significantly reduces the number of harmful airborne particles that can cause respiratory illness, protecting the health of residents.

“Air purifiers have been shown to be effective in removing potentially harmful aerosols. A study that employed air purifiers in a COVID-19 ward demonstrated clearance of 99% of aerosols within 5 min.”

Why aged care facilities need air purifiers.

It's more important than ever for aged care facilities to protect their residents' and staff's health and wellbeing with the best air filtration practices. Here are four key reasons why air purifiers can benefit your residential aged care facility.

  • Stop the spread of viruses: Aerosolised droplets from sick staff and residents can stay in the air for hours, putting other residents and staff at substantial risk of infection. An air purifier filters the air to reduce the number of pathogens to stop the spread.
  • Reduce allergic reactions: Many elderly Australians are impacted by allergies that can trigger a wide range of irritating symptoms. An air purifier filters the air and restricts allergens as small as pollen and dust from the air, reducing reactions.
  • Enhance air quality: In aged care facilities, it's crucial to maintain indoor air quality to prevent respiratory issues. An air purifier can help remove pollutants, dust, and other particles that cause poor indoor air quality, making the environment safer and healthier.
  • Decrease odours: Aged care facilities can have a range of odours to manage throughout the day. Air purifiers can adsorb odours with high-capacity activated carbon filters to provide residents and staff with a fresher and more pleasant indoor space.
  • Increased Cognitive Function: Exposure to airborne pollutants can cause cognitive decline, particularly for those with pre-existing conditions. Air purifiers can help remove harmful pollutants, improving cognitive function, memory and mood.
  • Aid Respiratory Health: Many elderly people have respiratory conditions like asthma, pneumonia or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Air purifiers can remove irritants and allergens that worsen these conditions.
  • Compliance with Regulations: Research into the quality of air in aged care homes has revealed poor levels of air ventilation and distressingly high concentrations of harmful airborne pathogens. An air purifier ensures you are doing everything you can for the health of residents.
  • Comfort and Well-Being: Clean and fresh indoor air can contribute to the overall comfort and well-being of elderly residents. Improved air quality can also help residents feel more at ease and relaxed in their environment, which is important in an aged care setting.
