Fingerprint Guard Tour Reader Ends Proxy Patrol at Shuguang Hospital (Anhui)
Fingerprint verification + editable voice prompts ended proxy sign-ins: completion 82%→100%, hazard detection up 75%.
Shuguang Hospital (Anhui), affiliated with Shanghai University of TCM, is a large comprehensive hospital with heavy foot traffic and widely distributed fire equipment. Patrols previously used paper sign-ins or plain punch cards; some guards signed in for each other or filled in sheets afterwards, leaving public areas and fire equipment uninspected.
Challenges
- Proxy and after-the-fact sign-ins were impossible to eliminate — patrol authenticity unprovable
- Inspection items relied on memory, leading to missed and wrong checks
- New guards needed a long time to learn routes and check items, hurting efficiency and quality
Solution
The hospital chose the fingerprint guard tour reader as its core patrol device, covering public areas (outpatient halls, inpatient corridors, elevator lobbies, passageways) and fire equipment (hydrants, extinguishers, emergency lights):
- Fingerprint verification: every checkpoint requires fingerprint validation to log the read — uniqueness of fingerprints ends proxy sign-ins by design, ensuring a real person on site
- Editable voice prompts: custom voice content guides guards along preset routes so no point is missed
- Key check items are recorded into the system and announced automatically on arrival — fewer memory errors, shorter training for new staff

Results
- Patrol completion up from 82% to 100% — cheating eliminated entirely
- Public-area security with zero blind spots; fire equipment inspection far more standardized
- Hazard detection timeliness up 75%; fire equipment stays safe and functional
- Voice prompts clarified the workflow — guard efficiency up 40%
- Management reviews patrol data live in the backend — fully traceable and controllable
