Xtract One Technologies (TSX:XTRA) today announced that its Xtract One Gateway ("Gateway") has been selected to enhance security at critical healthcare locations in Manitoba. The system will be deployed at the province’s Health Sciences Centre and Crisis Response Centre locations, which are operated by Shared Health. This marks a significant step in the Company's mission to improve safety and operational efficiency within healthcare environments.
Xtract One's Gateway system is designed to redefine the security experience by providing powerful threat detection while maintaining a smooth and unobtrusive flow of people through checkpoints. This balance of safety and convenience is crucial in healthcare settings, where security needs are often paired with the importance of maintaining a positive and comfortable environment for both patients and healthcare professionals. The technology not only enhances security but also optimizes operational efficiency, streamlining access to and from the facilities.
Peter Evans, CEO of Xtract One, commented on the announcement: "Healthcare environments today face two security challenges: providing top-tier security while ensuring that both patients and caregivers feel safe and comfortable. This is a trend we’re seeing across the healthcare sector, where providers are actively looking for solutions to these growing challenges, and we welcome the opportunity to play a role in securing health facility environments."
The Xtract One Gateway is part of the Company’s advanced portfolio of screening solutions, designed to scan individuals and their belongings without causing disruptions. By seamlessly scanning people, their pockets, bags, and backpacks for potential threats, the system eliminates the need for time-consuming and intrusive bag searches. It distinguishes harmless personal items such as laptops, tablets, notebooks, eyeglass cases, and phones, allowing for quick, efficient screenings and smooth movement throughout healthcare facilities. This advanced threat detection technology is particularly important in preventing mass casualty events, enhancing security while maintaining an uninterrupted flow of individuals.
