Using decibel meters, nursing staff can: - Identify Noise Sources: Determine which activities or equipment contribute most to noise levels. - Adjust Schedules: Plan noisy activities, like cleaning or equipment maintenance, during times when they are least likely to disturb patients. - Promote Awareness: Educate staff about the impact of noise and encourage quieter behaviors. - Use Soundproofing Materials: Implementing sound-absorbing materials and barriers can help reduce ambient noise.
