No more hospital hide and seek. Versus Technology makes it
easier to track down staff and patients in bustling health
care environments with its real-time location systems --
made up of hardware, software, and infrared and radio
frequency identification (RFID) technologies. The systems
can be integrated within an existing IT infrastructure to
pinpoint the moving locations of people, equipment, and
charts. They are also used to control access, record and
report events, and permit communication. Its badges and tags
are worn by emergency room, nursing, and security staff and
can be attached to mobile medical equipment. Founded in
1988, Versus Technology markets its products primarily in
North America.
