An Essential Solution: Metal Detectors in Hospitals

Metal detectors are important tools for addressing safety concerns in hospitals with an elevated risk of violent incidents. By adopting metal detectors, medical facilities can significantly diminish these threats to doctors, nurses and patients.

Advantages of Metal Detectors

Security Reinforcement: Weapon detection systems defend against potential threats, immediately identifying and alerting security personnel to concealed weapons or harmful objects. 

Streamlined Security Process: Efficient and rapid scanning capabilities at main and ambulance entrances ensure that large influxes of patients and visitors can be screened without causing unnecessary delays. 

Innovative Features exclusive to Garrett Paragon: Zero Touch™ NFC capability means your security team can adjust settings instantly and touchlessly while eliminating tampering risk and human error. Adapt on the fly to elevated or reduced risk conditions.

Metal Detectors for Hospitals

Ensuring the safety of every individual is very important in a hospital's dynamic environment. Regton with Garrett Metal Detectors can provide 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

This full-sized walk-through detector is essential for rapid screening, especially where crowd management is a top priority.

Main Entrance: Visitors, staff, and patients typically pass through the main entrance. A walk-through metal detector serves as a primary checkpoint, ensuring no unauthorized or potentially harmful items enter.

Emergency Room: Given the rush and urgency of emergency rooms, it’s crucial to have an efficient and rapid system. Our handheld scanners and walk-through detectors are designed to 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 and ensures consistency in safety measures.

MRI Screening: Keeping metallic objects off patients before entering the MRI machine is critical. Walk-through metal detectors can perform a full-body metal screening to ensure the 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. 

Spot Checks: There may be situations where security personnel must perform quick checks 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 are flexible enough to operate in fast-moving and changing environments like emergency rooms, scanning patients before any urgent medical care without stopping personnel.

Isolated Checkpoints: These hand-held devices can benefit locations such as VIP wards, research facilities within the hospital, or areas housing sensitive equipment 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.
