Long-Term Care solutions

Product Introduction

In-Hospital Positioning System: Real-Time Visibility of People, Equipment, and Safety Events

Using location tags, sensor nodes, and a centralized management platform, the system enables institutions track the real-time location of personnel, residents, patients, and critical equipment. This enables nursing stations and facility managers greater visibility to on-site conditions.

Virtual fences and high-risk areas can be configured according to the needs of each facility, including entrances, exits, stairways, elevators, restricted areas, or designated care zones. When a person receiving care approaches, remains within, or leaves a designated area, the system can issue an real-time notifications to help reduce risks such as wandering, entering restricted areas, or delayed detection after a fall.

This solution is suitable for hospitals, long-term care facilities, adult day care centers, and large care environments. In addition to enhancing safety monitoring, it can support equipment inventory management, movement-flow analysis, and care-process optimization while reducing the burden of manual inspections and searches.

Working Together to Build Safer Care Environments

AcuSense Biomedical combines expertise in indoor positioning, IoT sensing, and healthcare applications to help healthcare institutions and long-term care facilities establish clearer, more responsive location-management systems.

In daily care operations, information about the location of staff and equipment often depends on on-site knowledge and manually maintained records. During emergencies, temporary equipment transfers, or the movement of high-risk residents, a lack of real-time location information can increase both decision-making pressure and the workload placed on care staff.

With the in-hospital positioning system, facilities can manage staff, people receiving care, and critical equipment through a unified platform. Combined with virtual boundaries, event notifications, and historical tracking, the system allows staff to supplement manual checks with real-time data and location information when making operational decisions.

AcuSense Biomedical specializes in systems integration for smart healthcare and long-term care environments. From needs assessment and site planning to equipment deployment and staff training, we help organizations implement tracking solutions that fit existing workflows and support safer, more efficient care environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What types of facilities can use the system? Are there any specific limitations?

The system is suitable for medical centers, regional hospitals, district hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, adult day care centers, and other large care environments. It is particularly useful where staff movement, equipment location, entrance security, and high-risk areas need to be monitored.

• What can the system track?

The system can locate and manage mobile equipment in real time, typically within 1–2 seconds. This may include valuable equipment such as ultrasound machines, ventilators, IV equipment, monitors, and other mobile medical devices. Depending on deployment requirements, the system can also be configured to track individuals such as infants in maternity and neonatal care areas, contracted care workers, contracted cleaning staff, and designated high-risk patients.

• Can the system be expanded in the future?

Yes. In addition to its simple, user-friendly interface, the system can be expanded to support other smart healthcare applications, including nursing-area temperature and humidity monitoring, automatic uploading of physiological measurements, automated staff attendance recording, and integration with robotic movement-control systems.
