Mental Health Security

The safety and security of patients, staff and visitors is a top priority for those in behavioral and mental healthcare fields.

Violent behavior committed by patients is a growing concern, one that affects front line staff most heavily. Yet, these staff are lacking appropriate security technology. That is, until now. Metrasens offers the technology to help inpatient, outpatient, and acute psychiatric facilities detect restricted items before they enter the facility.

 

KEEPING THREATS FROM ENTERING THE FACILITY

Recent years have seen an increase in threats and physical violence against behavioral and mental health staff, both administrative and clinical. The need for proper security technology to reduce these threats is long overdue. Metrasens now provides the solution in Proscreen 200, balancing the security needs with patient dignity.

 

SECONDARY SCREENING OF ADMITTED PATIENTS

 

Patients being admitted for treatment can display a wide range of emotions and behaviors. The threat of self-harm and harm to staff is real. Proscreen 200 provides the right tool to minimize behavior escalation, while safely screening for small items such as razor blades, lighters and needles.
