Nantucket Hospital

Opens state-of-the-art facility with

and security technology solution

The Challenge

In February 2019, Nantucket Hospital opened as the first new medical facility on Nantucket Island in over sixty years.

The solution comprises clinical and public address communications systems, synchronized clocks,
access control and surveillance systems, providing a layered solution that effectively fosters communication and ensures security requirements. From start to completion of the solutions implementation, SIGNET
