Wandering patients and patient elopement are two areas where long term care communities can differentiate themselves in their care and service to their residents. Systems Technologies can help by providing the next generation of resident protection technology. In its simplest form each door is protected by a controller. If a resident wearing a small, lightweight wrist tag approaches the door and the door opens, an alarm is generated and displayed on the console and appropriate staff pocket pagers or other alerting devices so the resident can be intercepted. Or if preferred, the door will lock to prevent the resident from leaving
