Metal Detectors for Hospitals
In the dynamic environment of a hospital, ensuring the safety of every individual is paramount. Garrett Metal Detectors offers solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of healthcare facilities. By understanding the flow and urgency of hospital operations, we’ve designed metal detectors that seamlessly integrate without hindering day-to-day activities.
Walk Through Metal Detectors
Our full-sized walk-through detectors are essential tools for rapid screening, especially where crowd management is a top priority.
Entrances and Exits
- Main Entrance: Visitors, staff, and patients typically pass through the main entrance. A walk-through metal detector here serves as a primary checkpoint, ensuring no unauthorized or potentially harmful items make their way inside.
- Emergency Room: With the rush and urgency that comes with emergency rooms, it’s crucial to have a system that is efficient and rapid. Our walk-through detectors are designed to quickly scan individuals without causing delays.
- Public Entrance: For larger healthcare facilities with multiple public entrances, having a walk-through detector at each entry point fortifies the hospital’s security grid, ensuring consistency in safety measures.
- MRI Screening: It is critical to keep metallic objects off of patients before entering the MRI machine. Walk-through metal detectors can perform a full-body metal screening to ensure safe use of this important medical technology.
Hand-Held Metal Detectors
Compact, efficient, and precise, our hand-held detectors are the perfect tools for secondary screening and on-the-spot checks in areas where installing large detectors is not feasible.
Security Guards
- Spot Checks: There may be situations where security personnel need to perform quick checks, either based on suspicion or random screenings. Hand-held detectors and security officers allow for this flexibility without causing major disruptions.
- Emergency Room: Hand-held detectors have the flexibility to operate in fast-moving and changing environments like emergency rooms, scanning patients on their way to urgent medical without stopping personnel.
- Isolated Checkpoints: Locations such as VIP wards, research facilities within the hospital, or areas housing sensitive equipment can benefit from these hand-held devices by ensuring no unauthorized access or contraband materials are introduced.
- Secondary Screening: Walkthrough checkpoints function best when accompanied by versatile Garrett hand wands. Hand-held detectors quickly identify alarming objects pinpointed by walk-through metal detectors.
