Hospital Security
An Overview of Upgrading the Access Control and Security for one of Scandinavia’s largest University Hospitals, Helse Bergen—Haukeland University Hospital has more than 8000 employees, and almost the same number of students belonging to the hospital. There are more than 120 different departments in the organization, and most of them are situated in the same area within the central buildings. The remainder of facilities are hospitals, and are spread out among the country.
The History
Helse Bergen installed their first access control system in 1991, and after 4 years they had almost 100 card readers installed in the main building. The system they chose at the time did not meet their expectation, and in 1998 they decided to make a new specification with a bid competition for a modern IT based access control system, with an expectation to last for a long period of time. One of the highlights in the specification was that the system had to be modular / upgradeable and backward compatible. They did not want to have to change the whole system in order to take advantage of new hardware and software upgrades every time they became available.
The Solution
They decided to use controllers and card readers from PCSC and presentation software known as XSM (later EBI) from Honeywell. Installation and service was provided by PCSC’s Norwegian distributor Sønnico. The contract was signed late in 1998, and the installation started in 1999. The panels used at that time were PCSC’s Ultimate controller with a direct ethernet connection using TCP/IP protocol, all panels were connected directly to the hospitals IT network so that remote sites would be as easy to secure as the central buildings.
Years later, additional IQ-series panels were installated, and today there are more than 500 card readers connected to the Ultimates and IQ controllers that are linked to full redundant EBI-servers through the Hospitals IT-network, and the system is still “growing”. In late 2008 it is planned to install another 200 card readers in different buildings. In the near future the the complex will have had at least 1000 card readers installed.
The Director of Security Mr. Arvid Eik and the Hospitals Security Department are very satisfied having made the correct decision 9 years ago, discovering they had more maintenance with the old 100-reader system than what they have today with a 500+ reader system from PCSC.

Case
study: West Jefferson Medical Center Marrero, Louisiana
West Jefferson
Medical Center (WJMC) is dedicated to quality patient care, provided in
a considerate and respectful manner.
In late August
2005 when Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, WJMC was one of only
three area hospitals that remained open throughout the storm. WJMC fought
valiantly to care for patients despite flooding, structural damage, and
loss of power and water.
Today, WJMC,
a 451-bed, not-for-profit hospital and healthcare system, continues its
recovery while planning for a strong future as an employer of choice in
its area and a
provider of vital health services to Jefferson Parish and surrounding
communities. A key
part of that endeavor is a partnership with Johnson Controls, Inc. that
stretches back more than 25 years.

Iomniscient and Hospital SecurityAll of us have had some interaction with hospitals and other health care facilities. If we have been lucky enough to avoid having to stay there oneself, one may have had to go there for the birth of a child. Or an aged parent may be in a care facility.
As lay people we all tend to be more aware of all the issues facing our various hospitals and other health care facilities. Labour wards where babies are born are usually filled with doting parents, grandparents and friends. However geriatric wards, dementia wards and old age facilities
in general tend to be poorly attended other than by the patients and a few staff. In such facilities it can be important to know if someone has slipped and fallen on the way to the lunch room. The largest number of falls happen in the bathroom. As such the management of such facilities have to draw a fine line between the privacy rights of the patient and the need to ensure that they are safe and still upright.
Certainly in the public areas such a system is invaluable. Especially in dementia wards a Facial Recognition system is also valuable. Uncle Johnny may wander off and get lost. He may forget where he is and may not know how to get back. The system can track where he was last seen.
In more traditional health care facilities there is another major issue – the protection of drugs, syringes and other related materials from theft. A video analysis adjunct to an inventory management system can be use to record the face of a person every time he picks up some item in the stock room. If a box of drugs goes missing the system will have a record of every person who picked up a box from that area. Note that this is much more than a recording system. If a simple recording system is used one would be storing a lot of video footage of the empty stock room as it would usually only be visited in short bursts. A motion detection system would also not be of particular use as one does not need to see who entered or left the room. The key is to know who picked up an item from a particular section of the stock room. For this one would require an IQ 140 level theft detection system. Download PDF or go to Iomniscient
