COVID-19 Home Quarantine Compliance: Advanced Indoor Positioning Technology for Pandemic Response
COVID-19 took the world by surprise and many governments found themselves poorly equipped to deal with the dynamic nature of this global pandemic and public health emergency. If applied correctly, home-based quarantine is a cost-effective containment strategy and infection control measure. However, a key limitation of home-based quarantine is compliance monitoring and ensuring effective quarantine enforcement for pandemic containment.
Penguin Location Services Home Quarantine Solution
At Penguin Location Services, we applied our patent-pending indoor positioning technology to develop a comprehensive home quarantine compliance solution. Our innovative system addresses the critical need for reliable quarantine monitoring during the coronavirus pandemic.
How Our Quarantine Monitoring System Works
Our quarantine compliance solution uses a specialized bracelet that is paired to an app on the patient’s mobile phone and ensures that the patient continues to be inside the quarantine area for the quarantine duration. This technology provides:
- Real-time location monitoring for quarantined individuals
- Automated compliance tracking throughout the quarantine period
- Seamless integration with existing healthcare monitoring systems
- Cost-effective alternative to facility-based quarantine
Key Features of Our COVID-19 Quarantine Technology
Modular and Flexible Implementation
“It is highly modular and can be adopted in bits and pieces to fit the needs of the client” remarked Raed Nayfeh, Penguin Location Services’ regional sales manager. “We have already been working with some of the regional governments and are very excited to be part of large-scale deployments today.”
Advanced Detection Capabilities
“Key differentiators of our solution are the detection – in real-time – of the bracelet status (worn vs. taken-off), secure location tracking, automated infraction detection and seamless onboarding.” Commented Mai Aqel, Product Manager at Penguin Location Services.
Comprehensive Quarantine Compliance Reporting
The reporting tool offers a compliance score reflecting the level of compliance of quarantined individuals to the COVID-19 guidelines. This compliance score guides the effort of healthcare teams in the field by providing:
- Real-time compliance monitoring for quarantined patients
- Automated alerts for potential quarantine violations
- Comprehensive analytics for public health decision-making
- Streamlined workflow management for healthcare administrators
