How do Senior Care Homes, Hospice, and In-Home Services use ID Cards?
Staff IDsProper identification in a senior care setting is a key component of maintaining secure operations, particularly visual identification. ID cards can be worn by a nurse or nursing aid when visiting patients’ homes. Typically, ID cards are worn on badge reels or lanyards by the employee and should be highly visible to the patient so they experience greater peace of mind that the person in their home is authorized to be there.

In addition, many small and large senior care complexes are issuing cards to their patients containing important medical information such as the patient’s blood type, any known diseases, disabilities, and allergies to use in cases of emergency.
Read MoreVisitor BadgesMany senior care & nursing homes issue temporary badges for guests as a way to ensure that all non-employees register at the reception area. This prevents potentially dangerous intruders from freely roaming the elder care home. One of the best ways to increase the level of security in these types of living and care facilities is to establish an effective visitor management system, and ID cards are a vital part of this process.
Read MoreAccess ControlSenior care & nursing homes can use access control cards to ensure only authorized individuals are entering restricted areas such as a staff-only room. An access control card will prevent patients and unauthorized persons from gaining access and compromising security of the facility or the safety of the staff.
Read MoreTime and AttendanceMany nurses and healthcare professionals work as contractors and are often paid hourly. Time and attendance ID cards ensure that the person clocking in on their shift is there on time and has been accounted for. To implement time & attendance cards, the company or provider will need time & attendance software.
