As an open place, medical institutions carry the important responsibility of the public to see a doctor. Hospitals at all levels circulate a very large flow of people every day, and their commuters include patients, family members, and medical staff. The huge flow of people and the special crowd structure have brought great difficulty to the safety management of the hospital. It is easy for intruders to enter and leave the hospital, and enter areas where only authorized employees should be able to enter at will, thus posing safety hazards. For example, the recent malignant injury case at Harbin Medical University is the biggest warning to the hidden dangers of hospital safety.

The application of contactless smart card technology in the medical industry helps the medical industry solve some long-standing thorny problems. Control personnel entering and exiting relevant areas of the hospital through hierarchical authority to protect the safety of medical staff and provide better access control management. At present, the non-contact smart card technology in the hospital includes the access control system to control the entry and exit of the hospital personnel, the secure login of the computer and IT system, and the management of patient medical information. HIDGlobal recently designed for Guangzhou Jinan University Affiliated HospitalAccess controlThe solution meets the needs of safety management.

Project Background

The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, formerly known as Guangzhou Overseas Chinese Hospital, was approved by the State Council and established in 1978 to serve the health of the general public and overseas Chinese and cultivate medical talents for the society. The hospital is the clinical medicine teaching base of Jinan University, with more than 1,100 professional and technical personnel, 43 specialties and 850 beds. It is a comprehensive hospital integrating medical treatment, teaching, scientific research, prevention, health care and rehabilitation. The hospital is about to build a new inpatient building of 72,000 square meters, implement digital and networked hospital construction, and step up investment in high-level medical equipment and safety management systems to improve the overall medical level and hospital safety in Guangdong Province.

The first affiliated hospital of Jinan University includes patients, visiting relatives and accompanying staff. The huge flow of people and the special crowd structure have brought great difficulty to the safety management of the hospital. It is easy for intruders to enter and exit the hospital, and enter areas where only authorized employees should be able to enter at will, thereby posing safety hazards (such as stealing babies from pediatric wards). Therefore, in terms of the safety management of the entrance and exit of the hospital, it is necessary to meet the dual requirements of opening to the outside world and protecting the rescue site at the same time.

In addition, the safety management of key areas such as the hospital’s drug room, operating room, and intensive care unit is the top priority. Any hidden safety hazard and accidental intrusion may cause major safety accidents. Therefore, the access control system of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University should meet the following requirements:

Graded authorization, limited time entry and exit: Key areas such as drug rooms and operating rooms need to be managed by grades, times and locations to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering.

Future scalability: The hospital will renovate the old building and construct a new building at the same time. Therefore, the access control system must be able to expand in the future in addition to meeting the application needs of the current stage, eliminating the need to reinstall the system in the future.

Hospital access control system composition

The hospital access control system is the first line of defense to protect the working area of ​​the hospital and the safety of medical staff. It is mainly composed of on-site access control equipment and the management center. The controlled area is divided by the distribution and functions of the hospital floors, so as to be effective, reasonable and cost-saving. . Combining the application functions of the hospital to choose the controller and access card of the access control system can also facilitate the expansion and addition of applications in the future. (See the topological diagram of the access control system)

System topology diagram

Access control field equipment: Field equipment includes field controllers, card readers, electric locks, door magnetic switches, door opening buttons and emergency glass breaking buttons. Mainly set at the door end of the hospital’s access control points, including operating rooms, baby rooms, medicine rooms and important computer room areas, office areas, and equipment areas. By setting different passage periods and permissions for personnel entering these areas, safety is improved.

Management Center: The management center includes system servers, authorized management workstations, management workstations (with database, report, query and other functions), main controller, printer, communication interface equipment and system software. The hospital sets the access authority, area, and time of access card through the management center.

The access control solution for the Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Jinan University. The system adopts a networked structure of centralized management and decentralized control. Through the TCP/IP network of the hospital, the access control points of the hospital management area are connected to the central management platform, and the main access points, such as the drug room , Operating room, important ward and other areas. HIDiCLASS card readers are installed at each access control point. When an employee wants to enter the controlled area, the card needs to be authenticated. Each card has set permissions to restrict the access time and area of ​​medical staff and other employees. For example, the intensive care unit and operating room are restricted to doctors and related medical staff. The management of the drug room is based on the schedule of on-duty hours, and the permissions are set for the cards held by the staff in the drug room to ensure that authorized personnel enter during the permitted period to prevent accidental and malicious intrusion.

The function and characteristics of hospital access control system

Multiple ways to open the door

The system sets up a variety of door opening methods to meet the different security needs of each area of ​​the hospital, such as card opening methods, such as card opening, card or password, fingerprint, card + password, card + fingerprint, card + password + fingerprint, password + fingerprint and other door opening methods. For example, a fingerprint reader is installed in the operating room to double-identify the surgeon by swiping card + fingerprint, which can accurately confirm the identity of the surgeon and prevent surgeons from switching operations.

HIDiCLASS contactless smart card technology provides three security levels: single-factor authentication, two-factor authentication, and three-factor authentication. In the case of single-factor authentication, you can log in to the system or enter the building as long as you use a smart card. Two-factor verification is the most common smart card verification method in hospitals, and both personal identification numbers (PIN) and smart cards are used to increase security. Three-factor authentication goes a step further, not only using PIN codes, but also using other security measures such as biometrics to provide stronger security guarantees for the management of important areas.

Hierarchical authority management

All hospital employees enter the management area by swiping their credential cards. According to the functions of the management area, the functions of the employees are classified, and the access rights are managed by time periods, and the relevant personnel are restricted from entering at will. For example, key areas such as medicine rooms and operating rooms need to be managed by levels, time and location to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering and improve regional security.

The iCLASS card reader is connected to the network access controller HIDVertXV1000 through the on-site controller HIDVertX100, and is connected to the central management station through the hospital’s TCP/IP. The administrator can use the system software to set different levels and permissions to implement permission setting, data browsing and query, and data backup for each access control point. When the computer in the management center fails, the entrances and exits can still work offline, and the card reading and access control switches will not be affected in any way.

Upload event records in real time

The access control system can record event records in real time and upload them to the computer, which can immediately display: cardholder (name, photo, etc.), event time, door address, event type (door swiping record, exit swiping record, button to open the door, invalid card reading Card, door opening timeout, forced door opening, etc.), and record truthfully. The records cannot be changed, which is convenient for the hospital to manage various reports.
