Frequently Asked Questions

What is a real-time location system (RTLS)?
A real-time location system (RTLS) uses wireless tags and sensors to track the real-time position of people, equipment, or assets within a facility. In healthcare settings, RTLS is used to monitor patient movement, locate staff during emergencies, and track the location of medical equipment.

How does a real-time location system work in a hospital?
An RTLS uses a combination of tags (attached to patients, staff badges, or equipment) and fixed sensors placed throughout a facility. The sensors detect tag signals and relay location data to a central system, which staff can access to see real-time positioning on a facility map.

What’s the difference between RTLS and standard patient wandering alarms?
Standard wandering alarms typically alert staff when a patient crosses a fixed boundary (like a door). RTLS provides continuous, real-time location data across the entire facility, so staff can see exactly where a patient, staff member, or piece of equipment is at any moment — not just when a boundary is crossed.
