Abstract: A hand sanitizer dispenser having a dispenser mechanism. The device may be microprocessor controlled and may time stamp and log actuations of the dispenser mechanism. Log entries may be associated or correlated with a patient and may be recorded in the patient's electronic medical records. The dispenser may also include an audio component adapted to issue verbal reminders and tonal reminders from a schedule of reminders. The schedule of reminders may be derived from entries in the patient's electronic medical records such as meal times, appointments with specialists, and other triggering events where hygiene may be advantageously practiced.

Abstract: A hand sanitizer dispenser and/or system may include a means for dispensing hand sanitizer. It may also include a microprocessor adapted to control electronic components of the hand sanitizer dispenser. A counter may communicate with the dispensing means and may count actuation events thereof. They dispenser and/or system may also include a means for identifying a user of the dispenser, and may be adapted to correlate actuation events with a user and record the data in a data storage means. The dispenser and/or system may also include a data port which may be in communication with a remote computer, and may communicate data recorded by the dispenser to the remote computer.
