Accushield Protection. What is it?

November 2, 2017Scott StrachanUncategorizedNo comments

Many local facilities have begun implementing a digital sign in requirement provided by Accushield.

According to Accushields website “The Accushield Visitor Sign in System replaces the paper sign-in logs at entrances to Assisted Living, Independent Living, Memory Care, and CCRC communities and in their place utilizes a touchscreen Tablet to sign-in families and friends and to confirm receipt of required credentials from third-party healthcare providers and other vendors working in senior living communities.”

WHY VISITOR MANAGEMENT IN SENIOR CARE?

That is a great question. On the Accushield  website, this is how they address that question.

Many senior living owners and operators are becoming increasingly concerned with the safety risk and liability associated with un-screened/un-credentialed third-party health care providers and vendors (i.e. Private-sitters, Home Health, Hospice, etc.) that stream in and out of communities and workhands on with residents and staff.

To address this industry-wide concern, Accushield has created a touchscreen, badge-printing Tablet to automate the sign-in process and confirm receipt of required credentials (i.e. criminal background check, liability insurance, immunizations, etc.) from third-party health care providers and other vendors working in senior living communities.

By removing the paper sign-in clipboard from the front of the community and replacing it with the innovative Accushield touchscreen kiosk, senior living communities add a layer of protection for residents and staff while minimizing risk and potential litigation.

How much does this cost?

Accushield currently charges outside providers $9.00/month/ individual to use their digital sign in sheet. At Abby Services we pride ourselves on transparent cost-efficient options for private caregivers. We have chosen to be very honest and clear about these fees. This is why, if your facility uses Accushield, you will see an additional Accushield fee of $9.00/per caregiver/month on your invoice.
