This document discusses innovations in clinical security and mobility at hospitals in the Valencia region of Spain. It describes a solution using identification bracelets, mobile beacons, and a central server to locate and track patients and assets in real time. The system provides secure identification, effective tracking and analytics, and mobility of information. It has been implemented at the new Hospital La Fe in Valencia to guarantee clinical security for over 1,500 patients and 1,000 assets across its 260,000 square meter facility.
