Yet healthcare workers face escalating threats, and patients feel less safe. Cambridge Terahertz delivers concealed weapons detection that works in the background, maintaining the welcoming environment your patients expect while giving your security team the visibility they need.
Violence against healthcare workers has reached crisis levels. Hospitals need better security, but traditional solutions create problems of their own:
Metal detectors beep constantly, requiring invasive pat-downs that upset vulnerable patients
Airport-style scanners are too expensive, too large, and send the wrong message
Neither solution detects non-metallic threats like ceramic weapons or explosives
Scaling across multiple entrances is cost-prohibitive
With new regulations like California’s hospital security law requiring weapons detection at multiple entrances by 2027, health systems need a better answer.
Cambridge Terahertz screens people as they walk naturally through your entrance—no stopping, no lines, no indignity. Our discreet sensors detect concealed weapons at a distance, alerting security only when intervention is needed.
Patients and visitors experience a normal entrance—not a checkpoint
Detect threats that metal detectors miss, including 3D-printed weapons
Reduce false/nuisance alarms and unnecessary confrontations
Deploy across all entrances affordably with our subscription model
Meet emerging compliance requirements ahead of deadlines
“I am going to tell our Sr. Leaders yes there is a strong desire for weapons screening at every entry but I have been holding on the expansion given the cost and the number of people required…”
