Elopement detection without wearables. Violence response without delay.
Your hospital already has the cameras. Camvi turns them into an alerting layer for the two problems security leaders name first: at-risk patients leaving unsupervised, and violence against staff — with all processing inside your network.
Use cases
The video layer of patient and staff safety.
Patient elopement
Boundary and exit alerts for monitored units — memory care, behavioral health, pediatrics — supporting response in seconds, with no tags to remove or manage.
Workplace violence support
Altercation and escalation alerts in EDs, waiting rooms, and garages — the video component of the prevention programs hospitals are formalizing under current Joint Commission expectations.
Investigations & search
Natural-language search across recorded video: locate an incident, a person's path, or a time window in minutes — on-premises, for privacy-sensitive environments.
Frequently asked questions
What is patient elopement detection?
Elopement is when an at-risk patient — often in memory care, behavioral health, or pediatrics — leaves a unit or facility unsupervised. Camvi watches existing hallway, exit, and perimeter cameras and alerts staff when a monitored patient area boundary is crossed, supporting faster response without wearable tags or RTLS infrastructure.
How is camera-based elopement detection different from RTLS or wearable systems?
RTLS requires tags, wearables, receivers, and ongoing management — and a patient can remove a tag. Camera-based detection uses infrastructure the hospital already owns and watches the actual doors and corridors. Many facilities combine both; Camvi adds the video layer without new hardware.
Can this help with hospital workplace violence programs?
Yes, as the video component: alerts for altercations and escalating incidents in EDs, waiting rooms, and parking areas support the workplace-violence prevention programs hospitals are building under current Joint Commission performance expectations. It augments security staffing and protocols; it does not replace them.
Is patient video processed in the cloud?
No. Camvi runs on servers inside the hospital network — a fit for healthcare privacy postures, since video never leaves the facility.
Does it require new cameras?
No — it connects to the hospital’s existing camera system and runs on commodity servers.
