WorldwideStaff Duress Monitoring for Hospitals - Cognosos
From the moment you arrive until the time you leave—staff throughout the hospital remain protected with campus-wide coverage from inside clinical areas to outdoor parking zones.
Protect Hospital Staff Everywhere
With 76% of nurses experiencing verbal or physical violence and 40% of healthcare workers victimized in the past two years, staff safety is a critical concern. Cognosos' Staff Duress Monitoring solution for hospitals offers a streamlined, wearable duress badge solution spanning hospital buildings and exterior zones like parking lots.
Staff discreetly press a badge-mounted button in emergencies, triggering an alert via dedicated low‑latency infrastructure and providing real-time, accurate location updates—even as incidents evolve spatially.
Built with durable, easy‑to-clean materials, the badges include a silent confirmation buzz and a self‑test feature for peace of mind. Integrated incident management connects with existing security systems, alerts nearest responders, and logs events for forensic review—empowering hospitals to meet regulatory mandates, reduce violent incidents, and elevate staff confidence.
Benefits
Open-Space Accurate Location Tracking
Continuously updated location data ensures responders arrive where the staff member is—not just where the alarm was initially triggered.
Campus-Wide Duress Coverage
Ensures safety both inside the hospital and in external areas like parking lots, walkways, and perimeter zones.
Rapid Deployment & Incident Management
A cost-effective, easy-to-deploy badge system with built-in incident response workflows, responder alerts, and forensic reporting capabilities.
