Triage and Registration Areas: Ensuring that resources are visible the moment a patient enters your facility for an intake or emergency visit.
Exam Rooms: Placing a sign in a quiet, private space where patients are often alone for several minutes during clinical transitions.
Staff Breakrooms: Reinforcing internal safety protocols and red-flag identification training for your nursing and security teams.
