Real products, live prices, in stock now ## Key takeaways - Entrances and exits - Corridors and stairs - Pharmacy and stores - Respect for privacy ## The problem A hospital has more doors than anyone can watch. Visitors wander, equipment goes missing and incidents are reported hours later. Cameras at the right places, entrances, corridors, car parks, the pharmacy and stores, give managers something better than memory. The places they must not point matter as much as the places they do. **Entrances and exits**: Everyone who comes and goes is recorded. **Corridors and stairs**: Movement between wards is visible. **Pharmacy and stores**: Stock areas are covered. **Respect for privacy**: No cameras where patients undress. ## How it works How it works The need or the riskSomething happens in a hospital The system noticesCCTV picks it up The right person is toldAt the desk, on a phone or on a screen Staff respondKnowing where and what A record is keptWhere the system keeps one, for review ## What to check before you buy | Check | Why it matters | | --- | --- | | Camera positions | Walk the site and mark every route | | Night vision | Dim corridors and car parks | | Privacy zones | Rooms where cameras must not look | | Recording time | How long footage is kept | | Maintenance | A plan, spares and a response time agreed before you buy | | Your own requirements | Confirm them with your regulator and advisers | ## How we set it up 1. **Walk a hospital**: We note every door, room, route and risk. 2. **Draw the plan**: Where CCTV goes and what it covers. 3. **Cable and power**: Cabling, power and backup to every point. 4. **Fit and configure**: Installed, set up and labelled. 5. **Test and train**: We test every point and train your staff. ## What we supply We design, supply and install CCTV for hospitals, clinics and care homes.
