About Us

Infection Prevention Systems, Inc. ("IPS") was formed with the goal of providing a comprehensive, practical and affordable solution to the hand-cleansing compliance problem.

Industries as diverse as healthcare, food service, hospitality and manufacturing have long-struggled to achieve a level of confidence that their staff members were adequately cleansing their hands in order to prevent the spread of infectious organisms and contaminants in the workplace environment.

Consultations with professionals in these industries led to the design and development of a patent pending system that is able to not only monitor whether employees cleanse their hands as required, but also verifies that they have performed a sufficient cleansing, and maintains a record of each employee's hand-cleansing regimen, enabling management to track compliance rates.

Official launch of the Clean Hands Infection Prevention System (CHIPS) was made at the 2007 annual APIC Conference, June 24-28, in San Jose. APIC is the Association of Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (www.apic.org).

The IPS management team is composed of technical development executives and engineers, marketing and sales experts from the infection prevention field, and business management executives drawn from diverse backgrounds.
