The challenge

What operators are up against

Hospitals depend on conditions and assets that change between scheduled inspections. Changes in equipment condition may emerge without a clear indication of which site, zone, or asset needs attention. Clinical engineering, facilities, and care teams often rely on manual readings and disconnected systems, making it hard to compare current conditions with normal operation. This delays response and increases the chance of downtime, waste, safety exposure, or service disruption.

The solution

How CrisisAlert addresses it

CrisisAlert collects location, movement, and asset-status signals across hospitals and sends the readings to a secure cloud application. Dashboards and configurable rules show asset health, operating state, and abnormal trends, retaining history by site, zone, or asset. This gives clinical engineering, facilities, and care teams the context to inspect or service the affected asset, helping them shorten response time and protect service continuity and document the response.

How it works

Users wear the badge; when the button is pressed, the badge sends an alert over a private, managed network rather than relying on Wi-Fi or cellular. The alert includes the user’s identity and precise location down to room and floor when activated. The system can then display the location on a map (Safety Blueprint) to responders and administrators. For campus-wide alerts, visual and audio notifications are broadcast via strobes, intercoms, desktop alerts, and optionally through integration with 911 dispatch. The software includes dashboard/alert management tools, responder management, data/analytics, and protocol configuration. Battery life is “a year plus under normal usage” in healthcare settings. Devices are installed with minimal infrastructure changes-wireless strobes, no rewiring required.

SenseEach wearable badge captures single-button alert activations along with the wearer's precise location - building, floor, and room indoors, and outdoor positions across campus grounds.
ConnectAlerts travel over a dedicated private managed network installed on site, independent of Wi-Fi and cellular coverage, and reach a secure cloud platform for response coordination.
AnalyzeThe platform pinpoints each alert's floor and room, tracks active incidents in real time, and maintains event history for review and compliance.
ActAn alert triggers campus-wide notifications - intercom audio, strobe lights, and desktop alerts - and directs responders to the exact room and floor.
