With the advent of COVID-19, many healthcare facilities, businesses, schools, libraries, and other public places are implementing temperature screenings when you enter their facility. This is to screen people in order to ensure that only those who are well can enter. However, providing a full-time staff member to monitor everyone who walks through the door is cumbersome and expensive to say the least.

Symtech Solutions offers HCI Contactless Temperature Screening Kiosks to make the temperature screening process quick, easy, cost effective and most importantly, safe. This touch-free method allows staff and visitors to be safe from one another and provide peace of mind. Below, we’ll go over some ways how temperature sensing kiosks can help your healthcare facility. Contact Symtech Solutions to learn more today!

HOW TEMPERATURE SENSING KIOSKS CAN HELP YOUR HEALTHCARE FACILITY

 Temperature sensing kiosks will soon be cropping up everywhere, especially if COVID-19 continues to hang around. They can be extremely valuable to healthcare facilities.

Decrease the Need for Staff 

Let’s face it, having one of your staff members who normally takes care of patients monitor who comes in and out the door, takes their temperature, and asks them questions is a waste of resources, especially if this staff member is a nurse. It costs money to have someone at the door, and if you do not choose to hire an extra person for this position, patient care will undoubtedly be impacted. Instead, you can invest in our HCI Contactless Temperature Screening Kiosks that eliminates the need for a full-time staff member.

Cuts Wait Times

It takes time to stand in line and get screened for your temperature and answer questions. Thus, a line can quickly form, causing inconvenience to your staff, delays in time you start working, as well as impacting patient care. Our HCI Contactless Temperature Screening Kiosks are quick and you can have multiple kiosks at one or multiple entrances to eliminate long wait times.

No False Readings

Taking people’s temperature can be cumbersome, and to be honest, boring. Thus, human error can creep in that may result in a false reading. By using our Temperature Screening Kiosks, you’ll eliminate human error. These rapid response monitoring systems are extremely accurate, measuring temperatures up to a third of a degree from about 18 inches away. The pass/fail reading is clear to read. When a false reading does occur, the system automatically notifies key personnel.

Historical Data

If you tried to keep track of everyone who walked through your busy healthcare facility’s temperature, you’d find it nearly impossible. Luckily, technology can step in and do a lot of the tedious tasks for us. Our HCI Contactless Temperature Screening Kiosks stores the data from the temperature readings along with their questionnaire answers (optional). That then can be used to monitor failures and can be used for other statistical purposes as well, including contract tracing. If you have multiple kiosks, all recorded data can be stored in one database for the facilities convenience. It can scan staff IDs to keep track of staff’s temperature and wellbeing as well.

Customizable

As most of us have seen, COVID-19 changes every day it seems. With our HCI Touch-free Temperature Screening Kiosks, you can customize your screen’s information with instructions, announcements, and other digital signage that you want to convey to entrants. When it comes to entrants answering your questionnaire, it is easy to change questions when necessary. These kiosks come out of the box ready to go but, were created with the intent of being customized for each facility’s needs and workflow.

Temperature sensing kiosks screen visitors before entering a hospital to help identify infection and stop the spread.

Integration

Our HCI Temperature Screening Kiosks are not just machines that take your temperature and then send you on your merry way. They are high-tech pieces of technology that can be integrated with iOTdevices that offer many other benefits. 

• They can notify you when the temperature reading sensors go down
• They can produce analytic reports you may need with the data 
• They can scan ID badges and verify these against employee database
• They can unlock doors to allow access to certain areas
• They can send emails or text messages
• They incorporate RTLS technology for real-time data tracking
• They can be used to display a whole host of messages
• They can network multiple sites into one area

As technology improves with these temperature screening kiosks, expect to see a whole host of other capabilities emerge for COVID-19 and use for after COVID-19.
