Summary

Marion General Hospital’s mission is to transform the health of the community it serves through patient-centered, high-quality, and affordable care. To match the caliber of their high-quality care for their patients, Marion General placed a priority on elevating their security system for their staff, patients, and visitors for years to come.

Challenge

Define and implement integrated technological systems to heighten the safety of MGH staff, patients, and visitors for a 100-year old building with 14 multi-site facilities.

Solution

An extensive 491-page security assessment was provided to take a holistic view to help identify security gaps and provide a guided technology roadmap for Marion General. This review resulted in integrating technology systems that addressed both short and long-term goals. Solutions included asset tracking, door monitoring technology, IP security cameras, Emergency Blue phones, and access control. The systems provided have not only provided a positive and secure atmosphere but also provide powerful learning opportunities to train staff through the use of cameras provided.

“At Marion General, safety will always be a top concern. New Era has allowed us to elevate and expand our security systems in a way that has provided comfort and confidence for our staff, patients, and visitors for years to come.” – CAO, Marion General Hospital.
