Suicide and Incident Prevention for Corrections and Behavioral Healthcare
How many seconds does it take for you to know there is a problem in your facility? Incidents can occur in seconds. In corrections, or healthcare, if something goes wrong, you need to know about it so that you can take action quickly. It may be the personal safety of officers or staff, or missed checks, or another task – critical or just important – that just didn't get finished.
Front Line Staff
Your Staff is Busier than Ever
Let's face it – your staff has lots to do. They are working hard and trying to do everything they are supposed to. If your organization – like most – deals with understaffing or turnover, your officers or staff may be covering for others or simply new at the job. And yet, you depend on them for the proper operation of your facility.
Supervisors
Your Supervisors are Busier, Too
Your first line supervisors are busy, too. They may have to take up the slack of staff absences. They are responsible for training new team members. All of which leaves less time for supervising and monitoring and making sure that necessary tasks are completed.
Electronically Documented Well-Being Checks
The most important of these are almost always well-being checks. Tracking and documenting all types of checks – including suicide watches and safety inspections – has been the core of our business since 1986, and the reason why we designed our super-rugged data collector, The PIPE.
Mobile Inmate Tracking
Mobile Inmate Management and Tracking
Since then, we've added RFID inmate tracking and SuperMAX mobile devices that keep track of meal distribution, headcounts, contraband inspections. The list of critical activities and handouts that Guard1 can track, and document electronically, is almost endless.
Do you worry if offenders have received showers, or recreation? Do you worry if meals or med passes are late?
Suicide and Incident Prevention
Prevent Suicides and Incidents
Do you worry about suicide in your facility? You should – suicides happen hundreds of times a year in corrections and behavioral healthcare. Or maybe you're just overwhelmed by a sea of paper reports.
Mobile Inmate Tracking
Keep track of everything with Guard1
Guard1 keeps track of all the tasks in your facility – so your busy staff doesn't have to. When a check is missed, or a meal is late, or any of a hundred tasks wasn't done, you and your supervisors will get a text or an e-mail. With Guard1, you can take control of your operations and deal with problems proactively.
Personal Alarms
Officer and Staff Safety
At Guard1 we also make products for officer safety – like our Duress Device – that require real time notification. Our background means that for alerts, notifications, checks, or compliance, no one has more experience or a better solution.
If you are responsible for the welfare of inmates or patients or others in your care, you should talk to us.
