What Risks Clinics Face Without Integrated Systems
Fragmented or outdated security exposes clinics to:
- Unauthorized entry into sensitive areas like patient rooms, pharmacies, and IT rooms.
- Theft of medical devices or medications.
- Delayed response to emergencies due to separate, siloed systems.
- HIPAA or regulatory non-compliance, risking fines and reputational damage.
- Reduced patient trust, impacting satisfaction and retention.
Upgrading to an integrated system mitigates these risks and ensures patient confidence.
