Today’s hospitals have a critical need to locate personnel throughout their facilities. They require a reliable RTLS to optimize patient care and ensure the safety of its personnel. The CenTrak staff badge was developed to meet this need and includes several unique features that improve upon legacy staff locating technology.
The CenTrak Staff Badge can be mounted onto the loop used to hold a standard hospital issued employee badge. The Staff Badge is designed to stay with the caregiver, thus eliminating the need for separate processes that require daily tagging of personnel. It is water resistant and can be easily cleaned. Each Staff Badge has three customizable buttons that can be assigned based upon the RTLS use case.
About CenTrak Gen2IR™ Technology
The CenTrak core RTLS differs from legacy systems with its combined use of a patented second generation infrared (Gen2IR™) and active RFID technology. Battery powered Monitors transmit a unique room number using Gen2IR which is received by any tag in that room. The tag communicates the room number and its own unique ID via RF to the CenTrak Location Server using a hospital’s existing wired or Wi Fi network, where it can be accessed in real time by hospital personnel and integrated with third party solution providers.
Similar to light, Gen2IR will not pass through walls and does not suffer from traditional infrared line of sight limitations. Therefore, when a tag reads a room number, there are no errors. This is certainty based RTLS. Unlike estimation based information, certainty based location data can be used by hospitals to make important improvements to process flow and automate decision making. Most healthcare workflow improvements can only be realized when the location data is certainty based.
*IT 744 and IT 744E are for use with the CenTrak 2.0 system. Order IT 741 for use with 1.0 system.
