Mexico. The flow of people in hospitals, clinics and care homes is very wide, as it must remain open to patients, doctors, care staff, administrative staff, visitors and providers, so it is very important to be aware of security and access control in the unit. At the beginning of this year alone, three new high-tech hospitals have opened in Mexico to serve approximately 15 million people.
Hospitals have special needs and must have strict control in areas such as operating rooms, pharmacies, neonatal rooms, among others designed in such a way that they protect the privacy and safety of patients.
Therefore, dorma+kaba, an international company dedicated to the development and manufacture of innovative solutions in access control and security, recommends:
- Install comprehensive access control systems, combined with security doors to separate open and restricted areas;
- Have CCTV monitoring and recording systems,
- Install child intrusion or abduction alarms;
- Have locks that manage and control access at restricted points;
- Have biometric scanners to protect special equipment from improper use;
- Install automatic doors for common and intensive care areas;
- Have panic bars so that access is controlled but the output is free.
For example, renowned hospitals around the world have dorma+kaba access control systems in elevators, common and restricted entrances, as well as biometric scanners for particularly sensitive areas.
