Health Care
Securing a door in a day care, hospital, retirement community, or
other medical service facility is a unique situation unlike any
other installation. Each install must be looked at not only from the
specific security requirements, but from the codes for fire, life
safety, HIPAA, and ADA.
When securing newborns or protecting wandering elderly patients,
exit doors are often secured with delayed egress systems. These
systems allow the door to open after an alarmed delay period. The
delayed doors may be tied into a standard card reader or keypad
system to allow employees entrance and exit without delay. Some
doors must also be connected to the fire system for immediate unlock
when an alarm occurs.
Doors are not the only hardware effected by some of these codes.
Medical records, hospital supplies, and drugs must be secured in
accordance with the regulations that cover each type of these
controlled materials. Often employees need to secure these items in
supplied cabinets or closets that are less than secure. We have the
solutions to protect what is valuable. From electronic to
mechanical, security devices are what we install.
Security Lock Service Corp. and Security Building Controls has the
unique perspective of having technicians that specialize in
mechanical and techs that specialize in electrical, working together
as one. Our experience in both phases of a security installation
make us a good choice when you need to incorporate different
elements of a security installation together. |
