Services
Staff Attack Systems
Our staff attack systems provide instant emergency alerts in high-risk environments. Designed for mental health facilities, these touch-sensitive units trigger precise location alerts via LED, sounder, or vibration. Systems integrate with CuroHD devices for real-time staff notifications, reducing response times through direct incident pinpointing.
Nurse Call Solutions
Nurse call systems enable patient-to-staff communication in healthcare settings. Featuring vandal-resistant room units and wireless call points, our solutions ensure reliable activation in emergencies. Systems support configurable buttons for varied alert types and include low-battery indicators for continuous operational safety.
CuroHD Transmitters
CuroHD transmitters are wearable safety devices for staff in secure environments. With fast charging and one-week battery life, they display real-time alerts via OLED graphics. Features include configurable buttons, event history playback, and LoRa paging across 16 channels for multi-area coverage.
Touch Room Units
Touch room units offer vandal-resistant emergency call points for institutional settings. Available in multiple configurations, these low-profile units (5.5mm thick) support attack, alarm, or reset functions. They integrate with central displays to show incident locations and audible alerts for rapid response.
Infrared Receivers
Infrared receivers provide discreet 360-degree coverage for signal transmission. Designed for secure environments, they work with CuroHD systems to ensure precise location tracking. Units support multiple configurations and integrate seamlessly with existing alarm infrastructure for enhanced operational efficiency.
