Photo identification cards are an important part of healthcare facility security plan. When selecting the right system, cost is important, but it isn't the only consideration, according to an article on the Campus Safety website.
After deciding who should be issued ID cards, consider how often to re-issue new cards.
Knowing how often you need to issue and re-issue cards could be a large factor in what types of software and hardware you need to purchase.
Factors that may affect how often you re-issue cards can include upgrades to new security features, new protocols or technology, or the need for a new ID design.
