Hospitals, clinics, and care facilities need hydration solutions that prioritize hygiene, accessibility, and sustainability. Oasis offers a range of bottle fillers, drinking fountains, and mainsfed water coolers tailored to support health, safety, and environmental goals in patient centered environments.
Access to clean drinking water is not just a matter of comfort in healthcare settings—it is a critical factor in patient recovery, staff performance, and visitor wellbeing. Dehydration can have serious clinical consequences and operational impacts within hospitals and other medical facilities.
For patients, especially older adults and those with chronic conditions, adequate hydration is essential for recovery. Dehydration is linked to a heightened risk of complications such as urinary tract infections, confusion, pressure ulcers, and falls. These issues can prolong hospital stays, increase readmission rates, and reduce overall care outcomes. A 2022 study published in BMJ Open found that patients admitted with dehydration were significantly more likely to develop acute complications, underscoring the need for proactive hydration strategies1
For healthcare staff, staying hydrated is critical for maintaining focus, decision-making ability, and stamina during long, demanding shifts. Even mild dehydration (1–2%) can impair cognitive performance by up to 25%, affecting memory, attention, and reaction time2. In fast-paced clinical environments, optimal hydration can directly influence the quality and safety of patient care.
Visitors also benefit from visible, accessible hydration stations. Long hours in waiting rooms or stressful visits to loved ones can be physically and emotionally draining. Encouraging hydration supports their wellbeing and helps foster a more comfortable, health focused environment.
Installing reliable hydration infrastructure throughout healthcare facilities—such as touch-free bottle fillers and drinking fountains—is a simple, cost-effective way to reduce risk, support clinical performance, and promote a healing environment for all.

Healthcare systems across Europe are facing increasing pressure to operate more sustainably—reducing carbon footprints, cutting plastic waste, and improving patient outcomes. Integrating Oasis hydration solutions into healthcare environments directly supports several key European Sustainable Development Goals (ESDGs), contributing to a healthier planet and population.
Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being
Hydration plays a direct role in promoting the health and recovery of patients, maintaining cognitive performance in clinical staff, and improving the comfort of visitors. By making water more accessible through hygienic, touch-free bottle fillers and fountains, Oasis solutions help reduce dehydration-related complications in hospitals and support overall public health.
Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation
Oasis hydration systems provide safe, clean, and accessible drinking water in public healthcare facilities. This supports efforts to ensure clean water is available for all, while incorporating advanced filtration and antimicrobial technologies that align with infection prevention protocols in clinical settings.
Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
By encouraging the use of reusable water bottles and reducing reliance on single-use plastic containers, Oasis solutions promote sustainable consumption habits. This helps healthcare institutions lower plastic waste volumes and sets an example for responsible resource use within their communities.
Goal 13: Climate Action
Reducing the environmental impact of healthcare operations is vital to addressing climate change. Oasis hydration products contribute by lowering the carbon emissions associated with the production, transport, and disposal of bottled water. With energy-efficient components and durable design, these systems support long-term sustainability goals and help healthcare facilities take meaningful climate action.
