Securitas HUGS
The threat of infant abduction from healthcare facilities is a major concern. Hospitals, once allowing open friendly access, need to increase security and limit public access, especially in birthing and pediatric units. New developments in the art of infant protection systems provide for a safer and more secure environment. Installation of an Infant Protection System will enable caregivers and parents to have complete confidence against such threats.
Securitas HUGS
The HUGS infant protection solution from Securitas Healthcare protects 2 million infants every year across hospitals around the world. It is the global #1 infant security solution. The Hugs security system is flexible and scalable to any hospital.
Hugs tags offer more layers of security across all parts of the system and environment. They also protect pediatric patients of all ages, including NICU babies at the open-crib stage.
Securitas Kisses
A simple addition of a software license makes the Kisses tag compatible with an existing Hugs system for automatic mother/infant matching. A compact Kisses tag is assigned to each mother and is bonded to her infant’s Hug tag at birth.
The tags remain bonded throughout the hospital stay and the Hugs tag will automatically check for a match whenever a baby is brought to a mother. If the match is incorrect, an audible alarm sounds and an alert is sent to the system.
Like the Hugs tag, the Kisses tag is hypoallergenic, waterproof, and patient-friendly. The tags do not come in pre-matched sets, which means they are re-usable within the system. Additionally, tags support multiple births with no extra steps required.
