Patient and staff safety with RTLS

FAQ

Common questions

How does a staff duress system work?

Staff wear a badge with a button. When it is pressed, the RTLS identifies the room and alerts security and nearby staff with a location map.

Does RTLS support NSQHS Standards?

RTLS safety data can support governance and workforce safety work under the NSQHS Standards, but compliance depends on how each facility uses it.

Can it be used in aged care?

Yes. Wander management is commonly used in aged care to alert staff when residents at risk approach exits.
