Description
This no-touch infrared thermometer lets parents, caregivers, and clinic staff check a forehead temperature without ever making contact.
Aim the probe level with the forehead, roughly 1-inch from the skin, and press once. The screen glows blue while measuring, then turns green for a normal reading or red for a fever. Since nothing touches the skin, there are no probe covers to buy and less risk of passing germs between family members or patients.
Why caregivers like it
- You can check a sleeping child or resident without waking them.
- Color-coded results are simple to understand.
- A surface mode measures the temperature of objects such as a bottle.
- It reads in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
