Attacks on healthcare staff, particularly in emergency departments, represent a highly relevant and important issue, exacerbated significantly by the pandemic emergency.
This dangerous situation (which exposes our operators to unacceptable risks, particularly during especially delicate moments) can, if not regulated, lead to severe consequences for the physical and mental health of those affected, and may even drive some to leave the profession due to inadequate protections.
The gravity of the issue has been underscored by Health Minister Schillaci, who has advocated for the government to issue a specific directive that the Ministry of the Interior intends to adopt for the Prefectures. This will allow them to establish operational protocols with health care organizations, ensuring rapid police intervention in case of attacks.
To address this emergency, TapMyLife has developed a real-time localization system for patients and operators experiencing aggression. This system is capable of sending an immediate alarm signal to a designated control room. The critical event is then displayed on a static map of the facility, facilitating the swift deployment of emergency teams to the incident location.
March 12th each year is celebrated as the Day Against Violence Towards Healthcare and Social Health Workers. We utilize the most advanced tools to ensure prompt intervention and the personal safety of those who daily fight for our health.
