Origin Medical Non-Touch Thermometer | NDIS Infection Control Aid

Monitor health vitals with clinical precision and hygiene using the Origin Medical Non-Touch Digital Forehead Thermometer. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this TGA-registered medical device is designed to support NDIS participants with compromised immune systems, sensory sensitivities, or chronic health conditions requiring regular temperature tracking.

Traditional thermometers often require invasive contact (oral/ear) which can be distressing for participants with sensory processing disorders or Autism. This infrared device captures accurate readings instantly without touching the skin, eliminating cross-contamination risks and allowing for temperature checks while the user is asleep. Featuring a large backlit display and simple one-button operation, it empowers participants and carers to manage health monitoring duties with confidence and ease.

3. How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Infection Control: The non-contact design eliminates the need for skin contact, significantly reducing the risk of spreading germs or cross-contamination between household members.

• Sensory Regulation: Removes the tactile discomfort of cold probes in the ear or mouth, making health checks less stressful for participants with tactile hypersensitivity.

• Cognitive Support: Features a memory function that stores the last 35 readings, assisting participants with memory challenges to track health trends without needing to write them down immediately.

• Promoting Independence: The ergonomic gun-style grip and one-button activation make it easy for users with reduced fine motor skills to take their own temperature.
