RoamAlert asset tagSenior care facilities are full of mobile medical and safety devices that are essential to providing care… but also difficult to manage. The RoamAlert system enables you to receive and manage alarms from these devices from a central location. Download the Mobile Equipment Monitoring overview brochure.

Consolidate alarms from all your equipment

Each device to be monitored is equipped with a wireless InterTag that connects to the device via a standard dry contact closure. When the device goes into alarm, the InterTag immediately sends out an alarm message to the RoamAlert system. This signal is picked up by a network of receivers installed throughout your facility, and sent to the RoamAlert software.

Alarms are displayed in the RoamAlert software with complete information on the device and location, so that staff can respond quickly and with complete knowledge of the situation. And for staff on the move, you can send information via pager.

Locate and protect valuable assets

Using the same basic infrastructure, you can also locate and protect other high-value equipment or important assets, everything from notebook PCs to the keys to the medicine cabinet.

Each asset you wish to track carries a small radio frequency Asset Tag (or an InterTag). The tag sends a regular signal that is detected by the receivers. This information can be used to accurately track and locate equipment within your facility.

Both tags can be attached to a variety of assets, and include an anti-tamper mechanism to prevent unauthorized removal. The system can also generate an alarm if the tag is brought near a protected exit without authorization, and when the battery power in the tag becomes low.
