Accutech Systems Withstand CPU Failure

Posted by Accutech on March 10, 2014 9:25 am

Modern hospitals and nursing facilities use an array of computer and software driven technology to provide top-notch care. Storing and accessing medical records, monitoring, communication as well as security are all dependent on the speed and reliability offered by computers. But what happens when these machines fail? As the story of Banner Health’s computer problems at the end of February shows, sometimes critical healthcare systems must overcome hardware and software failures with no advance warning.

The IS 3200 software-enhanced wander management system from Accutech Security delivers advanced reporting, notification and resident identification features through an interface run on top of Microsoft Windows. During a computer failure (hardware or software), the essential resident monitoring and egress alert functionality remains. Even with the computer system turned off, if an RFID tag (worn by a resident) enters a protected area, an alert is sent via multiple channels. This system can be integrated with nurse call, electronic access control (EAC), closed-circuit television (CCTV), fall detection and other existing security mechanisms within the facility. The same thing is true with our Cuddles Infant Protection System - the essential egress and alert features guarding infants from abduction in hospitals and birthing centers continue to operate even without the software functionality.

All Accutech systems are manufactured in the United States, installed and serviced by a vast network of authorized dealers, and backed by the industry’s most comprehensive customer support program. Both the ResidentGuard wander management systems and the Cuddles Infant Protection systems come with a comprehensive support program giving you peace of mind when you need it most.
