Infant Protection Systems

Keeping Newborns Safe From the Moment of Birth

At Security Engineering, we partner with healthcare facilities to implement advanced infant protection systems that safeguard newborns from abduction and unauthorized movement. Designed specifically for hospitals, maternity wards, and birthing centers, our technology provides real-time monitoring, automatic alerts, and seamless integration with your existing security and video systems—all without disrupting patient care.

Our infant protection solutions use soft, tamper-resistant tags and room-level tracking to ensure each infant’s location is continuously monitored. If a tag is removed, a baby is taken beyond a designated area, or any system component detects interference, staff are immediately alerted and lockdown procedures can be initiated within seconds.

Built for reliability and ease of use, these systems operate independently of hospital networks, offering dependable protection, intuitive operation, and peace of mind for staff and parents alike.

  • Each newborn is fitted with a small, comfortable, tamper-resistant tag that communicates with the hospital’s monitoring network. If a tag is removed, loses signal, or approaches a restricted area, the system automatically locks doors or triggers an alarm—ensuring every baby stays exactly where they should be.

    With automated tag check-ins every 1.5 seconds and instant response times within 15 seconds of signal loss, your team can act quickly and confidently to prevent potential risks.

    • Automatic Tag Check-In – Detects missing or inactive tags up to 90 seconds faster than competing systems.

    • Independent Operation – Continues to function even if your network is down.

    • Automated Tag Transfers – Simplifies nurse workflow and minimizes manual data entry.

    • Door Control Integration – Automatically secures doors when an unauthorized tag approaches.

    • Scalable, Cost-Effective Software – Intuitive, license-free platform with no recurring costs.

    • Video Surveillance Integration – Pairs easily with your existing CCTV systems for full situational awareness.

Why Infant Protection Systems Matter

4 seconds. That’s how quickly an infant can be removed from a hospital room.

Most infant abductions occur in healthcare facilities.

Parents gain confidence that their child is protected from the moment of birth, while staff can respond quickly and precisely in any situation. Together, this technology creates a safer, calmer environment where families and caregivers can focus on what matters most—welcoming new life and responding instantly.

  • Even in secure facilities, newborn abductions or accidental mix-ups can happen within seconds. Infant protection systems provide constant, automated oversight to prevent these incidents and ensure immediate response in the rare event of a security breach.

  • Tags communicate with the monitoring network every 1.5 seconds. If seven signals in a row are missed, the system alerts staff and can lock down exits—typically within 15 seconds of the issue.

  • Our infant protection systems are stand-alone and operate independently from hospital networks. With battery backup options and local control panels, protection remains uninterrupted during outages.

  • No recurring software fees are required. After installation, your facility owns the system. We offer optional support agreements for maintenance, system health monitoring, and staff training.
