“Providing our staff with a duress system that quickly provides location and identity has greatly improved response time to incidents.” Mark Bryant, Security Director

Staff Security
The TTI Guardian is a wireless duress system and two-way paging system designed to provide assistance at the touch of a button. In the event of a disorderly patient or medical emergency a staff member simply needs to press the duress alarm button on their two way pager or wireless call fob and a message will be automatically sent to an individual or group of pagers providing not only who triggered the alarm, but also their location. The time saved in delivering this information can be the difference between a minor incident and a major one. Acknowledgement messages can even be sent directly back to the individual that triggered the alert so they know assistance is on the way.Optional man down or no-response alarms can automatically send a message providing name and location in the event the pager or call fob is tilted beyond a certain level or there is no response from a worker in a pre-determined amount of time.
Patient Security
Incidents can occur quickly and without any warning, potentially creating safety issues for other patients.
At the first sign of any such incident a staff member simply needs to press the duress alarm button and additional staff are instantly notified, thereby bringing about a quicker resolution to the problem.
