Where Centurion Fits in Healthcare
Healthcare facility security proves to be a unique challenge due to the critical assets of a hospital - its people, property, information and reputation. Within a healthcare facility, emotions run high – behavioral health, maternity and emergency departments in particular are risk areas. Staff protection, especially in these areas, is another consideration for hospital security. The Centurion System meets the need for a more mobile, flexible, well-informed police and security force in and around healthcare facilities.

Centurion
The Centurion Wireless Security System is the fastest wireless duress alarm system on the market, transmitting unique pinpointed messages without delay to hospital personnel and/or security officers by way of two-way radios, pagers, phones, and email. The Centurion allows security officers and various personnel to move about the premises and perform normal daily tasks, yet respond instantly and effectively when needed.

Here’s How It Works:
A location-specific voice message is recorded on the Centurion system. That message, which is triggered by a wireless duress button or other various sensors, is received by hospital personnel by way of two-way radio, pagers, phones, and email in seconds. Staff members and security officers know immediately where they're needed without any dispatch delay. Centurion allows security personnel to move about the premises for additional protection, yet respond quickly and effectively to an emergency call. Centurion tells what is happening, when, and where—as it is happening. It’s about time!
