Locating People
Whether you need to locate a radiologist to read an x-ray, a nurses' aide to move a resident, or a visiting patient for testing, Momentum RTLS makes locating people easy. Patients, residents, staff, and visitors simply wear a small, lightweight badge, which identifies their location. By simply glancing at a monitor or dialing into the system, staff members locate other staff members, patients, or visitors instantly. There's no need to search the halls. Momentum RTLS puts you in touch with people the moment you need them.
CLIENT CARE
An increased level of client care is realized with RTLS in place. Clients and staff are able to use the nurse call feature from anywhere in the facility through the use of the call button on their badge. This allows a client to request assistance, and have a staff member attend to their precise location. Through the client monitoring features, staff members are alerted when cognitively impaired clients enter restricted or harmful areas (wander guard), which facilitates the prevention of client-to-client conflicts or clients exiting the facility without authorization. Historical reports can also determine the start and spread of infection, and which clients have been exposed. contamination.
