Product advice
Is Forehead Thermometer right for you?
This non-contact Forehead Thermometer gives an instant temperature reading without touching the skin, held just 2-3cm from the forehead. This makes it a particularly useful option for anyone who might be disturbed by a more invasive thermometer, such as someone living with dementia, or while sleeping.
A backlit LCD display makes the reading easy to see, even in a dimly lit room at night, without needing to turn on a bright light that could wake or disturb the person being checked.
Home temperature checks can be a useful part of general health monitoring, but if you or someone you're caring for has a high temperature alongside other symptoms, or a temperature that doesn't settle, it's important to seek advice from a GP, pharmacist, or NHS 111.
Buyer questions
Forehead Thermometer FAQs before you enquire
Clear answers to the questions customers usually ask before booking a free home demo.
How close does the thermometer need to be to the forehead?
It's designed to be held around 2-3cm from the forehead, without making direct contact with the skin.
Why might this be better for someone with dementia?
Because it doesn't need to touch the skin and gives an instant reading, it can be less likely to startle or unsettle someone who might find closer contact distressing.
Can I use this thermometer at night without waking someone?
Yes, the backlit display means you can take and read a measurement in a dimly lit room without needing a bright light.
What should I do if the temperature reading is high?
If you or someone you're caring for has a high temperature, particularly alongside other symptoms, or a temperature that doesn't settle, it's important to seek advice from a GP, pharmacist, or NHS 111.
Is this thermometer suitable for children as well as adults?
Yes, the non-contact design makes it a comfortable option for both adults and children.
