Where Duress earns its place on a healthcare shift.
Each scenario maps to a Duress product and to an outcome we can show in the audit log.
-
App ›A nurse on a home visit at 9pm.
Single-handed visit, unfamiliar address, escalating client. One slide of the Duress App from a phone already in their pocket and a real operator is listening, locating, and dispatching. No second device to forget.
-
Falcon ›Aged-care worker between shower rooms.
Falcon on the wrist. Fall-detection auto-escalates if a worker hits the floor and doesn't respond in 60 seconds. Code-grey workflow handled before the team's pager has finished its first cycle.
-
Phoenix ›Outpatient clinic on a Friday afternoon.
Phoenix under the lanyard, hidden from view. Silent activation when a presenting patient becomes aggressive. No alarm sound to escalate the encounter, just a live operator on the line and a manager paged.
-
Falcon ›Acute ward, code grey.
Falcon's beacon-level indoor positioning tells responders which bed, which side of the curtain, which floor. Not just "third floor north". Exact bay, exact room, before they're out of the lift.
-
App ›Mental health crisis on a community visit.
Discreet activation, two-way voice from the device, the Operations Centre stays on the line while the worker walks to safety. Audio recorded for the incident report and clinical handover.
-
