Protection Against Accidental Mismatching


The Safe PlaceMother-Baby Matching System is your protection against the threat of mismatching a newborn infant in your care with the wrong mother. Increasingly busy Obstetric Departments are finding that caregivers are expected to have expanded duties with fewer actual nurses in the unit. Data reflects that this increase in workload has given rise to the possibility of mismatching a newborn infant with its mother, therefore, increasing the liability burden faced by hospitals.

FACT The risk with this type of mismatch is significant, even with a 1 in 1000 chance of a mismatch (with over 4 million births per year in the U.S.) the potential risk is 4,000 per year!

Saves time by Automating the Process


The Safe Place 'Mother-Baby Matching System' employs the latest in technology to automatically confirm the correct baby is given to the correct mother every time they are brought together. The mother is given a tag to wear which corresponds directly with the infant security tag that's already secured on the baby. Thereafter, whenever the mother and baby are brought together, it flashes a green light on the mother tag and notifies the Safe Place system a correct match has occurred. When an incorrect match is attempted, the Safe Place 'Mother-Baby Matching System' will automatically detect the event and a red light will flash and 'beep' to notify the mother or nurse. This system saves valuable time, by eliminating many of the manual processes to overcome this potential threat.

Fulfill Compliance
This offering from Safe Place seamlessly integrates with existing Safe Place infant protection systems and it also records all events and notifies nursing staff via the computer and/or Quick Look displays for maximum flexibility and security. All activities and events are documented in the Joint Commission Reporting feature of the Safe Place computer.
