Safe Hospitals purpose-built technology
solution creates a new foundation of safety for hospitals to
provide highest level of patient care, increase efficiencies and
better manage security incidents
The global pandemic has had a tremendous impact on health care
systems and brought new challenges to the safety and security
operations of hospitals. On top of this, hospitals still have to
manage a variety of pre-pandemic concerns, such as attempted
patient elopement, prescription drug theft, unruly visitors and
trespassing. Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) today announced its
Safe Hospitals solution, a unified technology ecosystem that
combines video, data, analytics and voice technologies, to help
hospitals proactively manage threats, drive operational
efficiencies and create the environment of safety needed to provide
the highest level of patient care.
With 23 hospitals, nearly 11,000 clinical employees and more
than 2 million outpatients seen every year across Illinois,
Missouri, Oklahoma and Wisconsin, SSM Health has deployed a Safe
Hospitals solution from Motorola Solutions to mitigate complex
safety and security risks.
“What sets our security solution apart is the simplicity and
speed that come from using technologies that work together,” said
Todd Miller, SSM Health Regional Director of Security. “We can move
quickly from detection to action to mitigate disruptions to our
operations and patient care. The benefits of this are felt across
the organization - it gives our security officers more confidence,
because they have the right resources in place to do their jobs in
a truly professional manner, clinical staff feel more comfortable
and safe in the workplace, which leads to greater retention and
patient care, and we save time and money by deploying hospital
resources efficiently.”
The Safe Hospitals solution combines video and analytics,
command center software and critical communications solutions to
help hospitals detect and analyze events, seamlessly communicate
and respond appropriately in any situation. For example, Avigilon
cameras with analytics can detect a vehicle belonging to a banned
individual on hospital grounds, triggering an automated alert to
MOTOTRBO™ two-way radios, allowing security officers to assess the
scene via camera feeds and dispatch personnel to the right location
with detail about the incident. This kind of intelligent workflow
is created by the hospital in a simple cloud-based platform, that
allows the hospital to tailor how the technologies work together to
meet their specific needs. The automation and integration of
security technology in this new and meaningful way can be critical
in saving minutes and seconds in every incident response.
“Facing complex daily challenges, health care workers can only
provide the highest level of care when an environment of safety is
certain,” said Sharon Hong, vice president, enterprise
technologies, Motorola Solutions. “By creating one connected
ecosystem of technologies, our Safe Hospitals solution allows for
quick and clear detection and analysis of what is happening on
hospital premises, bringing the speed and awareness needed to
address concerns and resolve incidents appropriately, helping staff
get back to what they do best - taking care of their patients.”
The Safe Hospitals solution is available now in North America.
