traditional access approach. Ultrasound 

guided peripheral IV insertion allows 

for cannulation of veins that are neither

of ultrasound guided peripheral IV access

AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR... 

...towards staff at work is dramatically on the 

increase, especially in our Hospitals. Verbal abuse, 

threats with weapons, cuts, punches, even serious 

injuries are becoming everyday occurences. 

The impact on the confidence and morale of staff is 

damaging and costly and has a serious impact on the 

caring and commitment that lies at the heart of the 

staff/patient relationship. 

Installing an INSTANTalarm 5000 

Staff Personal Alarm System 

will make a dramatic difference 

® 

INSTANTalarm does NOT 

• track you around the hospital 

• use radio-frequency 

• rely on unreliable wi-fi 

• have a computer controlling it 

INSTANTalarm, 

® 

however, DOES 

• let you decide when you need help 

• pinpoint your location, to a room 

• work instantaneously 

• make you and your patients feel safer 

• reduce the frequency and impact of 

violent incidents 

Which is why, over 20 years, 

INSTANTalarm 

® 

5000 has been probably 

the most widely-installed, staff duress 

alarm system in the world.

our interactions with healthcare professionals are professional 

exchanges designed to benefit patients and to enhance the

patients or healthcare professionals should not be offered on 

more than an occasional basis, even if each individual item 

is appropriate. Note: PhRMA Code is voluntary and for more
