Q. Tell us about the installation of the Accushield system. How difficult was it?
Answer: Very easy. All you need to do with the kiosk is plug it in! The kiosk can be moved easily. All of the information we needed for the system to work was easy to upload. When I first saw the product I thought “Why wouldn’t you do this?”
Q. How has Accushield’s badging benefitted your communities?
Answer: The clear number one benefit is that our residents feel safer. They feel more secure knowing that everyone, whether guest or vendor, has signed in. Unfortunately, in today’s world, that extra level of diligence and accountability is necessary. At one point, with the paper sign-in book, we had visitors walking around without badges and had no way of knowing if they had signed-in. Now, if we see someone without a badge, we are able to introduce ourselves, escort them back to the front desk, and sign them in. Badging has also allowed us to be more welcoming and hospitable. When a guest or vendor is wearing a badge with their name on it, our team members are able to greet them by name. It’s simple, but it is an effective way to connect more closely with family members and vendors.
Q. Any last thoughts or advice for anyone considering Accushield for their community?
Answer: I will go back to what I said earlier. When I first saw the Accushield system, I thought “Why wouldn’t you do this?” We live in a world that requires us to take reasonable steps to maintain safe and secure senior living communities. Many of our residents are vulnerable and it is our privilege to help limit that vulnerability. Accushield is a simple way to manage vulnerability that visitor risk presents.
