The Challenge

The inherent challenges of safeguarding a bustling medical institution like Chesterfield Royal Hospital required a sophisticated approach. With over 200 access points, the need to protect valuable supplies like chemicals, and the demand for continuous monitoring, a holistic security system was indispensable.
