Case Study: Securing Resident Safety at an Assisted Living Facility

A leading assisted living facility operator faced critical security challenges with resident safety. The facility needed an urgent solution to prevent residents from accessing unauthorized areas and ensure comprehensive monitoring throughout their premises.

The facility chose Surveillance Secure to complete the project based on their proven track record of reliability, capability for rapid deployment, and strong existing relationship as a trusted security partner, making them the ideal choice to quickly design and deliver a complete security solution.

The Problem

The assisted living facility was experiencing concerning incidents where residents were wandering into unauthorized areas of the building, accessing different floor levels unsupervised, and moving through facility “blind spots” without staff awareness. These safety concerns posed significant risks to both residents and staff, potentially compromising the facility’s duty of care and operational efficiency.

The Solution

Surveillance Secure provided a comprehensive security upgrade that included:

• Installation of advanced access control systems across multiple locations.
• Strategic placement of surveillance cameras to eliminate monitoring blind spots.
• Integration of elevator access control readers to prevent unauthorized floor access.
• Rapid deployment of all security measures within weeks of the initial request.

The Results

The implementation of the new security features delivered immediate benefits through enhanced resident safety, improved staff efficiency in resident oversight, and reduced risk of unauthorized access to restricted areas.

This comprehensive solution provided greater peace of mind for facility management and residents’ families alike. In the end, the client was very happy with both the project quality and the speed of the installation.

“Surveillance Secure saved my staff time, my company money, and my residents peace of mind with this install as we ensure safety at all times,” said the client. 

This project demonstrates Surveillance Secure’s dedication to handling urgent client needs with efficiency and expertise while delivering customized security solutions that protect vulnerable populations and provide peace of mind to healthcare facilities.
