Protecting Those Who Heal.
Healthcare environments operate 24/7 with constant patient flow, staffing challenges, and increasing safety risks. Entry Shield delivers continuous screening, real-time visibility, and coordinated response—without disrupting care or slowing operations.
Healthcare Workers at Risk
Workplace violence in healthcare is rising—and often occurs in fast-moving, high-stress environments where visibility is limited and response must be immediate.
Non-Fatal Violence
Of all non-fatal workplace violence occurs in healthcare settings.
Higher Risk
Healthcare workers are 5x more likely to experience workplace violence.
High-Risk Areas
Emergency departments face the highest rates of violence.
Continuous Need
Healthcare operates around the clock—security must too.
Unique Healthcare Challenges
Healthcare security must balance safety, compliance, and patient care—while operating continuously with limited staff and high patient volume.
Mixed Populations
Patients, visitors, staff, and contractors all require different levels of access and screening.
Medical Devices
Security systems must operate safely around pacemakers, pumps, and critical equipment.
24/7 Operations
Security must function around the clock, including shift changes and low-staffing periods.
Emergency Access
Entrances must process patients quickly without compromising safety.
Multiple Entrances
Hospitals have numerous access points—main, ED, clinic, and restricted areas.
Staff Mobility
Security teams are constantly moving—alerts and communication must reach them instantly.
