Senior Living and Hospital Security Systems

Healthcare facilities pose unique challenges when it comes to maintaining high levels of asset and patient security. At Accutech, it’s our mission to provide security solutions to hospitals and long-term care facilities that make protecting residents, patients, and staff members as easy and cost-effective as possible. Our easy-to-implement solutions span from wander management and infant protection systems to access control and digital footprinting technologies and have the ability to integrate with your current hospital network systems. Each system is fully-customizable to your facility's needs and goals. 

Hospital Infant Security Systems

Protecting newborns is easier and more cost-effective than ever with Accutech’s infant security solutions. Accutech's Cuddles hospital infant security system is designed to help nursing, security, and IT maintain the safety of infants in obstetric, postpartum, and NICU units. Our infant protection system protects babies from abduction in hospitals by using security bands and integrated security systems. If a situation develops where there is an unauthorized band removal or movement of a baby toward an exit door, sensors will immediately warn hospital staff and automatically lock the doors. Accutech's nurse-friendly systems allow caregivers to focus on attending to infant health needs while reducing the threat of an infant abduction.

In addition to deterring abduction attempts, the tag can alert hospital staff to an infant’s location, triggering alarms and locking down doors when the tag gets too close to an exit, preventing an abduction. Security cameras and alarms can help notify hospital and security personnel for a fast response and recovery of the infant.

Senior Living Wander Management Systems

Senior living communities must balance resident independence with overall safety. This balancing act can be especially difficult in memory care facilities. Accutech provides a solution that enables senior living staff to provide residents with freedom and mobility without sacrificing security and safety. The ResidentGuard wander management solution, which utilizes a "wander wearable" bracelet, creates a secure environment for patients with Alzheimer's or dementia to move freely about their facilities while receiving the protection and care they need. The rate of people suffering from Alzheimer's in the United States could triple by the year 2050—from 5 million currently to about 13.8 million. At Accutech Security, we are keenly aware of this rapidly increasing need for facilities to provide wander management protection while maintaining the dignity of all residents.

The ResidentGuard wander management solution also protects senior living centers from liability. Healthcare organizations around the world rely on Accutech to provide cutting-edge solutions for their long-term care facilities.

Digital Footprinting for Increased Hospital Security

Infant security is a paramount concern for maternity wards, and baby identification is a critical part of keeping newborns safe. Footprints from birth are a recognized and viable way to uniquely identify each baby. CertaScan® by Accutech is the leading provider of digital footprinting, allowing hospitals to identify infants from the time of birth, and therefore improving infant safety and hospital security.

Digital footprinting makes your hospital safer, minimizes security vulnerabilities, and puts your hospital on the cutting-edge of technology. Implementing CertaScan® into your security solution improves operations and reduces liability risk along with improving parents' confidence in your ability to protect their newborns.

Electronic Access Control

Accutech Access is a reliable, affordable, and scalable electronic access control (EAC) solution that helps monitor and control the movement and security of residents or patients, nursing staff, and visitors. The system is directly integrated into the ResidentGuard wander management and Cuddles infant protection solutions and can integrate into additional security systems when scaled to the Accutech Integrated platform, improving the security of your healthcare facility.

Controlling who goes where and when improves patient and overall hospital security. Accutech Access is a robust solution that allows you to integrate cameras, parking garage access control, card swipes, biometric readers, asset tracking, and all of the critical systems in your healthcare facility into a single, easy-to-use solution.

Protect one door or thousands with our cutting-edge, role-based access control. Implement safeguards to prevent violence and theft, by monitoring and controlling who can go where and when.

Healthcare Security Solutions and Hospital Access Control FAQs

The decision to obtain hospital security equipment is a big one, and you want to make the right choice to protect your facility, patients, employees, visitors, and assets. You probably have a number of questions about the process of installing access control systems or other types of healthcare security solutions. Reach out to an Accutech Healthcare Security Solutions representative today to get your questions answered. You can also read through the healthcare security Q&A below for answers to common questions we receive.

What types of hospital security do you provide?

Accutech offers a number of hospital security systems to protect patients, staff, hospital visitors, and hospital assets. We offer electronic access control systems, infant protection solutions, infant digital footprint scanning, wander management systems, and pediatric elopement systems. Our security solutions are designed to be flexible to suit the varying needs of different hospitals and healthcare facilities. You can also combine security equipment for thorough protection, plus our systems integrate with other security measures, nurse call stations, electronic access control, and a variety of additional communication platforms.

What devices can your security systems integrate with?

Accutech’s ResidentGuard, Kidz Pediatric Elopement System, Accutech Access, and Cuddles Infant Security Solution can all integrate with nurse call systems, pagers, cell phones, radios, and surveillance systems. Security in healthcare should be user-friendly and intuitive so workers want to use it, which increases effectiveness. Technology doesn’t have to be overly complicated—it should work for everyone.

Does Accutech provide customer support and technical support services?

Yes, we provide customer support and technical support to our customers 24/7, 365 days a year. We want you to feel comfortable operating your security systems knowing that if something isn’t working properly, you have the support you need to get things operational again in a timely manner. We have a professional team of support technicians who are only a phone call away.

What are the benefits of Accutech’s security solutions?

Do you understand that security systems can provide physical safety for all who enter a hospital or healthcare setting, but are there other uses for security healthcare systems? There are many scenarios in which unauthorized access to a healthcare facility is undesirable. Here are some more reasons to install hospital security systems:

  • Thwart criminals by preventing theft and crime 
  • Protection of infants and vulnerable patients
  • Safeguard against wandering for at-risk patients
  • Protect workers
  • Provide peace of mind 
  • Reduce liability
  • Lower insurance premiums

How are Accutech’s security systems installed?

Hardware door switches will be installed at access points, and for most systems, you will need other hardware, such as card badges, readers, and a computer. The system can be as large or small as you need it to be and can be upgraded should you have additional security needs in the future. The software will also be used to control who can access your healthcare facility or parts of the facility. A computer will have user information and customization options for access credentials. For instance, physicians may have greater access privileges than clerical staff.

Does a patient security system still work if the internet goes down?

Yes, our systems are designed to work even if the internet goes down. Security systems that operate using wireless technology can run into issues when the Wi-Fi signal goes out or is weak. You can count on Accutech’s systems to continue protecting you, though, because our solutions don’t rely on Wi-Fi. Improve your security operations by partnering with Accutech today to obtain the most reliable, effective healthcare security systems in the industry.

How can our company provide high-quality security at a hospital?

Several security measures may already be in place at your hospital or facility, including cameras, alarm systems, nurse call stations, and door locking capabilities. With Cuddles infant protection, access control, and other healthcare security systems into already existing software, the level of safety is enhanced.
