Elpas Healthcare Patient Tracking Solutions

Elpas Healthcare Patient Tracking Solutions from Visonic Technologies are restraint-free, wandering patient systems designed for acute care hospitals, psychiatric units or long-term geriatric care facilities. Engineered to deliver maximum capability coupled with ease-of-use operation, Elpas Patient Tracking Solutions provide 24/7 real-time location tracking of patients (suffering from Alzheimer's Disease (AD) or other forms of dementia) that exhibit a high probability of 'Elopement' or 'Wandering'.

Elpas Patient Tracking Solutions are designed to reduce the costly need to continuously supervise chronic Wanderers or to excessively restrict their mobile independence. Comprehensive hospital-proven, risk mitigation solutions that enable total freedom of movement of care givers, guests, other residents or family members while preventing un-supervised Wanderers from leaving monitored areas unnoticed.
Upon admission each Wander is given a state-of–the-art Elpas Active RFID Healthcare Positioning Tag (worn like a wrist watch) which allows the patient free and unregulated movement within the allowed detection zone (typically the interior area of the building or clinic). Should the tagged patient approach any of the protected doors through which he or
she is not allowed to pass through unescorted, the system’s audiovisual intervention functionality will auto trigger as well as log a complete history of the event.  From single-door, stand-alone patient safety solutions to fully networked, campus-wide, unified risk mitigation systems, Elpas has an off-the-shelf patient tracking solution ideal for your medical facility’s requirements

Elpas BabyMatch is an Ethernet enabled RTLS Infant Protection Solution that helps hospitals prevent baby abductions and unintentional baby mismatching in maternity environments without compromising a mother's privacy with her new born baby.

BabyMatch provides continuous supervision of each baby by automatically tracking the real-time location of the infant from the time of delivery to the time of discharge.
BabyMatch permits the regular movement of mothers, staff and visitors in and out of the maternity ward, while preventing the protected infants from being removed from the ward unnoticed or without supervision. In addition to monitoring the physical whereabouts and safety of the infants, BabyMatch can log the authorized transfer of the infants throughout the hospital, preventing any illicit attempts to move infants to and from wards and treatment centers.

Real-Time Asset Management Solutions

Elpas Active RFID/RTLS Asset Management Solutions are designed to supplement the traditional security rmeasures already deployed to reduce shrinkage of critical high-value mobile medical assets. Elpas does this by capturing real-time location, time/date and motion information about the protected asset and then alerting security when illicit asset tampering or unauthorized asset movement is detected.
