Wander Management RTLS
Protect your vulnerable patients from wandering risks with location data and alerts with Wander Management RTLS.
Safeguard Wandering Patients, Simplify Care
In various care environments, keeping patients safe from the risks of wandering and eloping is a fundamental responsibility. Vulnerable patients, such as those with cognitive and neurological impairments, psychiatric conditions or traumatic brain injuries, may inadvertently wander into unsafe areas, posing significant risks to their safety and causing concern for staff and family members.
Litum’s Healthcare RTLS for Wander Management provides a robust solution by enabling real-time tracking of patients. Equipping patients with secure, tamper-proof tags, the system instantly alerts staff if a patient strays from a safe zone, allowing for quick intervention.
With Wander Management RTLS, you can:
- Monitor patient locations continuously within the facility
- Receive instant alerts if a patient leaves safe zones or enters restricted areas
- Address potential safety events swiftly to prevent escalation
- Refine care plans and improve satisfaction using historical location and alert data
- Meet safety standards and enhance care quality scores
- Reduce constant supervision needs so staff can focus on direct patient care
- Optimize staff response and resource allocation through real-time location data
- Effectively manage access control to ensure only authorized access to restricted areas
Enhance Patient Care and Compliance
Effective wander management is not only crucial for their safety but also enhances overall care quality within healthcare facilities. Litum’s Wander Management RTLS unveils patient movement patterns, helping caregivers develop better strategies to ensure compliance with healthcare safety standards. Addressing patient elopement is particularly important, as it qualifies as a ‘Never Event’ – a severe incident that should never occur in a healthcare setting. In response to such events, the Joint Commission implemented a Sentinel Event Policy in 1996, aimed at helping healthcare organizations learn from these adverse events to enhance safety.
Create a Responsive Care Environment
Litum’s Wander Management solution unveils the patterns of patient movements, arming your staff with essential information and tools to proactively manage patient wandering. This preemptive approach helps prevent elopements before they occur. Supported by real-time data and user-friendly technology, this system not only enhances patient safety but also increases staff efficiency, fostering a highly responsive care environment.
