Summary

FRESNO, CA – Community Regional Medical Center (CRMC) chose TagMaster RFID systems to provide their parking garages and lots a comprehensive, site-wide standardized solution for their doctors, nurses, and staff to allow secure and continuous parking access.

Challenge

A previous RFID system had been installed and due to the poor performance, faculty, administrators, and staff were not able to reliably gain access to their assigned lots without the need for manual override for the barrier arms. This proved to cause significant traffic congestion and delayed employees from reporting to their assigned duty positions to care for patients in a reasonable time. After tolerating a poor quality and poor performing system for years, administration no longer could accept such conditions and selected a TagMaster solution.

Solution

TagMaster installed its’ robust LR-3 RFID Readers in conjunction with the S1240 MarkTag MeM Tags to allow for quick, hands-free vehicle access for hospital personnel and other authorized medical staff at CRMC.
