Managing Wandering Behaviors in Hospitals
Hospitals confront distinct difficulties when overseeing patients suffering from Alzheimer’s and dementia. The likelihood of these patients to wander is elevated, especially during bustling periods such as meals and nurse shift changes. Implementing a robust wander management solution is not just beneficial, but crucial.
Wandering behavior in hospitals can range from patients forgetting their room numbers to leaving the facility in search of familiar surroundings. A wander management solution enhances safety by integrating with door controllers to secure patients and prevent them from wandering. Wearable technology can lock doors or trigger alarms when unauthorized exits occur, preventing accidents. Wander management solutions improve patient safety and provide peace of mind for healthcare providers and families.
Wander Management Solutions for Hospitals
Implementing a wander management solution in a hospital setting not only streamlines your operations, but also transforms the healthcare environment into a safe and secure haven for vulnerable patients.
Implementing a wander management solution in a hospital setting is about more than just safety - it's about transforming the patient experience, reducing stress for families, and improving workflow for staff.
ROBUST SECURITY MEASURE
A vital benefit of a wander management system in hospitals is the enhanced security it provides for vulnerable patients, particularly those with cognitive impairments such as dementia or Alzheimer's disease. By preventing unauthorized departures, hospitals can significantly reduce the potential for accidents and improve overall patient care.
LIABILITY REDUCTION
By ensuring that patients remain safe within designated areas and through optional door locking features, hospitals that implement a robust wander management solution greatly reduces potential liabilities.
