Transforming Parkside into a Safe-Air Haven

As Assistant Nursing Director at Parkside in Newton, Kansas, Jennifer Fortner understands the critical connection between air quality and well-being—especially for immune-compromised residents. While the facility’s HVAC system helped filter allergens, it fell short when it came to actively removing pathogens like viruses, bacteria, and mold.

“COVID-19 and RSV are constant concerns,” Fortner said. “They impact both residents and staff—and standard filtration just doesn’t cut it.”

A Simple, Proven Solution

When Parkside installed a Violett device in a high-traffic common area, the difference was clear immediately. “From the moment I installed it, I noticed a significant improvement in air quality,” Fortner said. “It’s easy to use, blends right into our routine, and requires minimal maintenance.”

Because the Violett is portable, Fortner can deploy it exactly where it’s needed—whether to neutralize odors or reduce airborne pathogens in high-risk zones. Even more important: it allows her to assess particulate exposure and intervene proactively. “That ability makes Violett indispensable.”

"I’m not one to endorse products lightly, but Violett genuinely delivers. It halts virus transmission, clears pollutants, and leaves the space fresh and safe. It’s rare to find a product that truly lives up to its promises. This one does."Jennifer Fortner, Parkside Assistant Nursing Director

Results that Speak for Themselves

When a COVID-19 outbreak struck—impacting two nurses and two residents—Fortner quickly moved the Violett into the affected hallway. “It halted the spread,” she said. “The Violett medical-grade air disinfection not only stopped the spread of COVID, but also enabled the staff to work seamlessly without contracting or transmitting the virus.”

For Fortner, the trust earned by Violett goes beyond stats and features. “As a healthcare professional, maintaining a healthy indoor environment is paramount,” she explained. “Violett gives me confidence in our air quality—and our team and residents can feel that.”
