Duress Systems for Health Care Facilities

In the healthcare industry, duress systems can be something as simple as a button that a patient can press in the bathroom of the hospital room, to alert the nurses that she has fallen down or otherwise needs help. This is different from the paging button in the room, which is used for other types of needs that are not an emergency, such as requesting medication, water or anything else.

Duress systems in healthcare can be installed in the pharmacy section of the hospital, in the event that someone breaks in for medication. This is especially important in mental health facilities and also in maternity wards.

The purpose of a duress system is to alert in an efficient manner, the authorities or security personnel of an event that requires rapid action. It ensures the safety of patients and medical personnel and is a must in any healthcare setting.

We can implement duress systems in combination with other surveillance and security systems and we always use the most reliable and reputable brands, to include, LENEL and Honeywell.
