Visitor Management

Peace of mind is knowing who's onsite

Your front door is the first line of defense when discussing resident and staff security. Safety and security has and always will be a top priority in any healthcare location because of the vulnerable residents we serve. Accushield’s visitor management solution protects your staff and residents so you can welcome all visitor types with confidence.

“The simple issue is that poor risk management will empty a building faster than good marketing will fill it.”

Every Visit Matters

Visitors, outside caregivers, and agency staff each individually pose a unique risk to your healthcare operation. To help mitigate this risk we treat each person differently based on the reason they are on your property.

Keep your workplace free of uninvited guests

Have you ever had an unwanted or banned visitor try to enter your community? If so, did you know that you can use the Accushield kiosk to help you monitor visitors and alert management should a specific person try to enter? We developed this “Do Not Enter” kiosk feature due to the risk unwanted visitors pose to residents and staff. 

Visitor Badges

Visitor badges increase security and add professionalism to any environment.

Visitor badges also give guests an identity in your space, which creates a nice experience for your visitors. They help to identify who the visitors are within a workplace and provide information about the visitor. Much of which helps your company stay compliant and drastically speeds up your workflows.

Photo Capture Technology

Security is an important factor for any healthcare environment. Accushield provides an automated way to capture visitor, staff, third-party caregiver, staff agency, and vendor photos at sign-in. Operators can access these visitor photos anytime on the Accushield dashboard.

When visitors sign in to the Accushield kiosk, it simply captures the photo through the camera on the front of the kiosk and instantly displays it on the dashboard. 

Know Who Is Caring for Your Residents

Track, analyze and report on the third-party healthcare providers who provide hands-on care to residents and patients.

  • Private Duty Home Care: Track which residents home care providers are working for and keep tabs on their whereabouts within your community.
  • Staffing Agencies: Have access to staff agency clock-in and clock-out times using the Accushield kiosk.
  • Home Health Providers: Capture necessary clinical information and services rendered from home health providers as they enter and exit your building.
  • Hospice Providers: Easily track the services provided to your residents and patients from hospice providers.
  • Self-employed Private Caregivers: Verify, track, and credential your self-employed private-duty aides as they provide non-medical services to your residents.

Document Tracking

Seamlessly collect and store required documentation in order to validate the health and credentials of everyone who enters your building. Easily collect and approve any document type (i.e. vaccination cards, health test results, proof of insurance, professional licenses, or valid identification cards) and produce compliance-ready reports.

  • Collect, verify, and store required documents for staff, family and friends, service providers and volunteers
  • Fully customize the documentation approval process for your community
  • Collect documents via kiosk, mobile app, or upload in the dashboard
  • Verify submitted documents via dashboard
  • Verified documents allow seamless entry until document expires

Screen Size Matters for Seniors and ADA Compliance

You serve a population of incredible seniors. Because of this, your front-entry kiosks need to meet certain ADA, US 508 & WCAG compliance requirements, which the Accushield kiosk is designed to surpass. These requirements are enforceable by federal, state, and local agencies. Additionally, following these kiosk requirements helps protect you from lawsuits for not complying with these regulations.

Compliance Features Include:

  • Accessibility in Design: Accessibility in design is based on objective, measurable facts and is concerned only with technical or logistical truths.
  • Contrast Ratios: Ratios must meet the needs of the visually impaired.
  • Touch Targets: Geriatric research supports design with two fingers. Both Apple and Google recommend 2x fingertip size. Our designs are almost at 3X making it easier for seniors to use.
  • Industry Standard Iconography: Our designs incorporate the same iconography leveraged for US DOT & Google, and optimized for the IOT.
