Products supplied:
Humber Teaching NHS aimed to create a welcoming, familiar environment for young people without compromising on safety. Working with ironmongery partner RB Architectural Hardware, we supplied our full range of anti-ligature and anti-barricade door components.
Our mechanical 5-way SOS locksets were also chosen, giving staff the ability to override the lock in emergency situations - even if it's been tampered with. The emergency T-bar then gives staff leverage to pull the door open.
Independent access for patients
Providing patient autonomy and a sense of independence, we collaborated with the Trust and RB Architectural to install our electronic 5-way SOS locksets.
Patients are able to access their bedroom space freely with our anti-ligature wristbands, while staff have confidence in the 5 mechanical override methods to gain reliable emergency access.
Staff are able to instantly adjust user permissions using our access control management software - balancing patient empowerment with safety and security.
Fresh air and natural light
Our 3-part anti-ligature window restrictors were also installed.
Over 75 of our restrictors were installed to make sure the wards were safe and secure for patients. The restrictors also maximise natural light and fresh air.
