Public & Institutional

Healthcare security that protects patients, staff and medication around the clock.

Access control for wards, pharmacies and staff areas, cameras at entrances and in garages, and fire systems kept in compliance. Harb has delivered systems for Virginia Kettering Hospital in Dayton and designs for facilities that never close.

Overview

Open to the public at the front, tightly controlled everywhere else.

A hospital or clinic has to welcome the public and protect the vulnerable at the same time. Harb designs access control so emergency departments, wards, pharmacies and staff corridors each have the right level of control, with an audit trail for every door.

Cameras cover entrances, waiting rooms, parking garages and loading areas without intruding on patient privacy. Installation is planned with facilities and clinical staff so care continues uninterrupted. Our case study on Virginia Kettering Hospital describes this kind of work.

How Harb delivers in healthcare

The same four steps as every Harb project, planned so no door or camera is down unexpectedly.

  1. Step 1: Survey with security and facilities

    We walk the facility with your security, facilities and clinical leads, review existing systems and note patient-privacy and infection-control requirements.

  2. Step 2: Design and written proposal

    We choose commercial-grade equipment for your building, mark every device on a plan and price it clearly, so you know exactly what you are getting.

  3. Step 3: Installation without interrupting care

    Crews work in phases and coordinate every cutover with unit staff, so existing doors and cameras keep working until the new ones are proven.

  4. Step 4: Training and ongoing support

    We walk your team through the system, hand over documentation and stay on call for service, upgrades and expansions.
