A safer healthcare environment is always within arm's reach
When a staff member needs assistance or, if they are faced with a safety threat, they can quickly and discreetly summon help from wherever they are. CenTrak's accurate location technology, coupled with secure software applications, provide real-time map views, immediate alert notifications, and continuous location updates during a duress event.
Don’t let inaccurate information delay response times to staff emergencies
RTLS solutions that rely on Wi-Fi or estimated location technologies can lead to location inaccuracies and unreliable network communications. During a staff duress event, it is crucial that the alert is immediately received by the system and that time is not wasted sending assistance to the wrong room or floor. The Joint Commission states that exposure to workplace violence can impair effective patient care and lead to psychological distress, job dissatisfaction, absenteeism, high turnover, and higher costs.
The most reliable wireless staff safety solution for healthcare
Staff badges are equipped with wireless call functionality that discreetly summon help via the CenTrak wireless network. During an emergency, staff simply press on their badge and the application instantly communicates the identity of the staff member and the precise location of the emergency.
This isn't just another administrative protocol to follow. The system's proven results are a game-changer for our hospital's safety and staff morale.
