Monitoring Humidity in POC Units

With the addition of COM.30580 on the All Common checklist this year, we are wondering how specific to get with where we monitor humidity? We have hundreds of Statstrip glucose devices throughout our hospitals. Should we monitor humidity on each floor, on each nursing unit, or each nursing station and patient room where the devices are used in?

Also monitoring should be based on the "contiguous room" for example, you store the items in a closet that is closed off from the rest of the area, you would need a monitor specifically for that area since it is not part of the contiguous room and that small areas can have different humidity/temperature
