With Mattress Decontamination Money Matters:
The Financial ROI of Bed Barriers in Action 

Hospitals have millions invested in beds and mattresses – and both are failing at alarming rates. According to a recent mattress audit at a large academic medical center, 60 percent of 3 year old mattresses needed to be entirely replaced. An additional 40 percent needed a new mattress skin which also requires replacing the mattress. What’s even more troubling is that this costly and ineffective mattress decontamination process can leave bacteria that can be transmitted from patient to patient and spread C. diff and other HAIs.

The good news is that adopting a new approach with Trinity Guardion’s Soteria Bed Barriers safeguards your huge capital investment in beds and mattresses – and improves patient safety. Trinity Guardion’s expert team took over 2 years to build a comprehensive, customizable financial model to illustrate the ROI of choosing bed barriers over the status-quo.

The model, which takes into account independent time studies, bed and mattress types, adherence to the manufacturer’s instructions for use (MIFUs), rates of mattress failures, expected life of equipment, disinfectant dwell time and much more, breaks down the hard and soft cost savings of Soteria Bed Barriers.

That's why Soteria bed barriers deliver a clear, proven ROI in less than one year – and continue to deliver value each year.
