Midmark - Staff Duress

STRENGTHEN SAFETY TO PROTECT YOUR CAREGIVERS

Violence in healthcare is at crisis levels, and care teams deserve the peace of mind knowing that their safety is a priority. Midmark’s real-time locating system (RTLS) has helped health systems quickly respond to incidents, reducing injuries and associated costs. Midmark RTLS Staff Duress provides caregivers with a personal duress button to call for help in volatile situations so help can be sent to their exact location.

PROVIDE PEACE OF MIND:

• Personal mobile duress button

• Discreet and easy to use

• Automated alert of who, where and when

• Detailed reporting of call initiation and response

• Alerts sent to workstations and other systems via interfaces

• Unit or facility-wide coverage options

MANAGING SAFETY + SECURITY RISK

The Joint Commission requires that hospitals take actions to mitigate or resolve workplace violence, safety and security risks. With the Midmark RTLS Staff Duress solution, a badge is equipped with a discrete button to help staff instantly call for assistance, without escalating the situation.

COLLECTING DATA TO MONITOR CONDITIONS

Midmark RTLS offers reporting on staff duress incidents including which areas of the facility experience the most calls, who called for help, what time each call was initiated and how long each call remained open.

CREATING + MAINTAINING A CULTURE OF SAFETY + QUALITY

By providing your staff with a system they can use and trust, you’re committing to them that you care about their safety and well-being. Midmark RTLS Staff Duress can help you design a safer workplace, give peace of mind to your staff and provide actionable data on your health system’s safety commitment.

Clinical and biomedical staff often spend time searching for lost or misplaced equipment, time that could be spent on patient care and preventive maintenance. The wasted hours, equipment write-offs, and excess asset purchases lead to frustration and unplanned spending. This can add up to millions of dollars in waste per year for an average 300-bed hospital.

Midmark’s real-time locating system (RTLS) helps you track assets with at-a-glance simplicity. Now, Midmark RTLS Cloud Asset Tracking, paired with our Bluetooth™ Low-Energy (BLE) Sensory Network and durable asset tags, makes deployment and scalability easier and faster than ever.

ACCURATE, FLEXIBLE TRACKING OPTIONS

Three types of BLE asset tags provide multiple options for near room-level location accuracy. Multiple tag types enable tagging assets of all sizes. Tagged assets can be located quickly using lists, maps or filtered results.
