Security pros' experiences demonstrate the value of video surveillance systems, according to an article on the Campus Security website.
The 2016 Campus Safety Video Surveillance Survey asked participants to provide examples of the successes they’ve experienced with security cameras.
Examples that related to medical situations, included:
• “A student who is a severe diabetic misplaced her insulin pump during gym class. We were able to use our new camera system to track her movements and quickly discover where she left the pump, and who picked it up. The pump was returned before the situation turned into a medical emergency.”
•“Obtain eyewitness information (from the video) about medical emergencies such as slip, trip and fall accidents. Video of a student having a seizure, pre, during and post seizure.”
