Hospital
Secure entry control for hospitals
Hospitals and care facilities have to carefully manage the flow of thousands of people within their properties every day. There are of course the patients, either visiting or in residence, along with the healthcare professionals dedicated to their care. But alongside them is the army of support staff – cleaners, porters and back office staff – not to mention visitors, civil defence and maintenance contractors. It all adds up to a highly challenging environment for the facilities manager to ensure people – many with mobility issues – flow through the hospital freely, while protecting the vulnerable from harm and assets from theft.
Gunnebo Entrance Control delivers highly effective, flexible management of the movement of people into and within hospital facilities.
The world-renowned range of gates and turnstiles provide robust yet intuitive access management that can be used to protect patient welfare, safeguard against the spread of infectious diseases, prevent theft of assets and medical records and provide a safe environment for staff to perform their tasks. A detailed approach to design ensures systems can be specified that don’t impact on people with movement issues. And with the ability to integrate entrance control solutions with existing facilities software, managers can deliver granular entrance policies that provide highly flexible security policies that don’t compromise safety.
