Tags to Fit Unique Needs
InTouchCare™ Tag [IT-710]
The IT-710 is a battery-powered RF/IR Tag that attaches to items that need to be tracked, located and identified. Every Tag broadcasts its unique ID and a status message at a periodic rate. Tags are equipped with on-board infrared (IR) and motion sensors. This family of Tags is designed to be deployed in concert with CenTrak’s room Monitors and Ethernet receivers (called STARs). The Tags can be used for both people and equipment. For equipment, the Tag has a detection system to alert if it has been removed. For people, Tags can be worn around the neck, the wrist, or clipped to a name badge.
InTouchCare™ Patient Tag [IT-720]
Hospitals have a critical need for the wireless monitoring of patients. Patients want the flexibility to move throughout the facility, but the staff needs to know where patients are at all times. The Patient Tag has openings on both sides so it can be worn using a standard hospital wrist strap. It has an ergonomic curve to fit comfortably on the wrist. The Tag is also waterproof which allows patients to bathe with the tag on, and for thorough sanitization of the tag. The tag also has a customizable button that can be programmed to the hospitals specific requirements.
InTouchCare™ Temperature Tag [IT-730]
The IT-730 Tag features an integrated temperature sensor which provides the ability to monitor an asset’s temperature and increases the variety of applications of the Tag. This single Tag can be used to track, locate, identify and ensure correct temperature levels of any asset. The IT-730 Tag offers two main temperature sensing modes: periodic reporting and on-demand reporting. The IT-730 Tag creates a cost effective way to improve patient care as well as provide automated and detailed reports on any piece of equipment for any time period. Tags can generate alerts when the temperature goes above or below set parameters. Tags can also provide temperature logs which eliminate human error and the cost of manual temperature documentation.
InTouchCare™ Staff Tag [IT-740]
The IT-740 Staff Badge is the world’s thinnest hybrid active Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Tag currently on the market. The Staff Badge is so thin that it is almost indistinguishable from a standard employee badge. At three millimeters (3 mm) thin, the Staff Badge size allows hospitals and healthcare facilities to layer a standard personnel badge on top of the Tag, enabling the Tags to be seamlessly integrated into staff uniforms and hospital operations. Features of the IT-740 Staff Badge include, three programmable buttons, system controlled LED, hole mounts for portrait or landscape orientation, water resistance for easy cleaning, and ultra long battery-life.
