4G Real-Time Guard Tour System Secures Hospital Campus — 14 Readers, 140 Checkpoints
14 real-time 4G readers and 140 checkpoints: live upload, automatic alerts on missed rounds — 100% patrol completion.
The Fourth People's Hospital of Shenyang has many departments and complex corridors. Patrols previously depended entirely on guards' own discipline — missed and rushed rounds happened regularly. Paper logs were easy to alter or lose and gave no live feedback; theft and vandalism were barely deterred, with occasional property loss disturbing the medical environment.
Challenges
- Patrol points scattered across many buildings made full coverage difficult
- Paper registration gave no real-time visibility of patrol progress
- Missed or delayed rounds were hard to trace, leaving blind spots in safety control
Solution
The hospital deployed a full real-time 4G guard tour system: 14 dedicated real-time readers — one per guard — and 140 checkpoints installed evenly across floor corridors, department entrances, fire passages, equipment rooms, finance offices and medicine storage areas, covering the entire campus without dead corners.
The 4G readers transmit data in real time: the moment a guard reads a checkpoint, the time, guard ID and position sync to the backend management platform — every round is live-monitorable and traceable. Routes and frequencies are preset; missed or delayed rounds trigger automatic alerts so managers can follow up immediately.
Results
- Missed patrols eliminated — patrol completion rate reached 100%
- Every round now has a standard, a record and evidence behind it
- Full real-time coverage strongly deters theft and vandalism — property loss and facility damage dropped noticeably
- A safe, orderly environment for patients and staff, with no safety incidents disrupting medical work
