Expand the reach of the RoamAlert® system
The RoamAlert software turns RoamAlert into a complete wander management system, with a range of options to improve staff efficiency and customize protection to each resident. Download the RoamAlert software overview brochure.
A continually monitored network
The RoamAlert software ensures that your RoamAlert system is being continually monitored, and your residents protected. A standard PC running the RoamAlert software is physically connected to the Door Controllers and optional network devices, and monitors and controls all system devices.
Additional Workstations can be connected at other locations throughout the facility over a local area network (LAN) to enable staff to monitor system activity and perform basic functions.
More information, more flexibility
The RoamAlert software displays facility floor plans and a resident census. Designed for ease-of-use, the software presents only task-critical information, with handy Wizards to step users through common tasks.
Escorting a resident through a protected exit can also be done through the software, as well as at the door via a keypad. As an alternative, staff members can be equipped with pendant tags that enable them to automatically pass through a door with a resident. In all cases, the identities of the staff member and the resident are recorded in the system database.
Expanded alarm options
In an alarm, a warning immediately appears in the software, showing the resident’s name, the location of the alarm, and even a picture of the resident (this is a configurable option). The RoamAlert system can also be integrated with other devices to enable a range of responses to an alarm, from activating a strobe light to sending a detailed page message.
Alarms can be cleared either at the door via a keypad, or through the software. In either case, the system captures complete information on the event for future reference: the time, the location, the resident and the staff member who responded.
Complete database of system activity
The software records all activity, including alarms, in a database. A variety of system activity reports can be viewed on-screen and printed. This is invaluable information to document due diligence and help craft an individual care plan for each resident.
Personalized protection options
The RoamAlert software is the key to providing personalized protection to each resident, with a range of features that enable you to give maximum freedom:
- Time of day functions: Enable free access through an exit during day-time hours, while locking it at other times.
- Categorization: Customize door access on a per-resident basis, so that a resident can pass through some exits—to reach a common area, say—and not others.
- Volunteer Mode: Assign a pendant tag to a volunteer or another resident that enables them to escort a specific resident through monitored exits. Perfect for couples.
- Transport function: Enable a resident to leave the facility for a family visit or other reasons. No need to share passcodes with family, or have a staff member bypass each exit individually.
