Wander management systems (WMS) use real-time location monitoring and centralized access control to protect residents at risk of wandering while maintaining their dignity and freedom. Wander management technology helps healthcare providers improve patient safety and operational effectiveness in memory care, assisted living, or hospital settings. Custom wander management solutions are often chosen by providers who have complex multi-floor or multi-building facility layouts, need to enable WMS interoperability with legacy administrative or EHR software, or need advanced analytics to track elopement attempts or optimize staff schedules. Key integrations for WMS: a real-time location system (RTLS), an access control system, a nurse call system, an electronic health record (EHR) system, and a staff scheduling system. Implementation time: 8 to 12+ months, depending on the complexity of the project. Key Features of Custom Wander Management Software Real-time resident location monitoring Using RFID or BLE-based wander tags (wearable bracelets). Automated door and elevator control Locking doors and elevators and triggering alerts upon resident proximity. Admin app for staff A dedicated app for staff to manage and access resident profiles, ensuring smooth monitoring and management of resident activities. Setting up safe and restricted zones The ability to define and monitor safe zones (e.g., designated areas for residents) and restricted zones (e.g., hallways, exits, stairwells) to ensure resident safety.
