The Importance of Installing Window Film in Austin Hospitals For Safety
How Window Film Keeps Hospital Patients And Staff Safer
Hospitals in Austin are critical to our community and a place where those who are sick are able to heal and hopefully once again thrive. They also house some of the finest doctors, nurses and administration staff in Texas. Which is why safety for hospitals is a big deal and something for administrators to consider. One ubiquitous way to do this is with safety and security window film being applied hospital-wide. The benefits from safety and security window film are copious and profound. Read below to find out just how safety and security window film works to make hospitals here in Austin and around the country better and safer for everyone.
Bomb and Bullet Resistance: While the likelihood of a gun or bomb attack on a hospital in Austin is low, we live in an era where this type of violence happens and happens at random. Preparing for the worst case scenario with bullet and bomb-resistant window film, therefore, should be a consideration for any commercial space
UV Protection: One of the most potent and deadly hazards to skin and eyes comes shining into hospitals right through the windows. Window film blocks the detrimental rays of the sun, while still allowing in the healing rays–making for faster patient recovery–free from potentially cancer-causing UV rays.
Accident Mitigation: Slip and falls into glass windows, doors and other glass fixtures at hospitals are very real things and likely to happen in hospitals in particular because of the age and health of the patients. A way to mitigate the danger of glass breaking into dangerous shards by way of an accident is to have window film applied–which will then act much like tempered safety glass.
Natural Disaster Protection: Natural disasters from floods to hurricanes happen all the time here in Texas and with them comes a lot of damage. Principal among these damages is broken glass–which often hurts and kills people during storms. Safety and security window film keeps glass in place within the frame, keeping it from flying around and hurting people or worse.
