Tips for taking temperature
For best results, the patient should be inside, away from direct sunlight for at least 30 minutes before taking temperature.
Remove any hair from the forehead before measuring temperature.
Clean any sweat or dirt away from the forehead to improve accuracy.
Keep the patient’s head still – it can help to have them look at a set point in the near distance.
Hold the thermometer steady while taking a temperature – no need to ‘swipe’.
