The power of a holdup panic alarm is becoming more in demand than ever before. Holdup panic alarms are used\u00a0in an emergency. This system allows employees to notify responders in a crisis.<\/p>\n

What Makes a Holdup Panic Alarm Stand Out?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Holdup panic alarms are designed to help\u00a0a victim who is threatened in any way. For example, recent attacks in schools and office settings have set off\u00a0the need for holdup panic alarm. Traditional holdup panic alarms are hard-wired and only notify one responder. On the other hand, the CRS Notify<\/a> holdup panic alarms are designed to alert responders via multiple real-time communication channels. CRS Notify holdup panic alarms bypass typical alert notification systems that take several critical minutes just to be notified. Seconds can seem like an eternity for the person needing assistance.<\/p>\n

The CRS Notify holdup panic alarm system is designed to activate an alert notification system instantly. Once the holdup panic alarm is initiated, alerts are received by multiple parties regardless of geographical location. If an employee activates the holdup panic alarm, an instantaneous\u00a0signal is sent to internal and external contacts. The program also has an internal communication chat room which allows constant communication to take place during an ongoing crisis. The technology for CRS Notify holdup panic alarm system is a cloud-based emergency button that is revolutionary with frequent and affordable updates to the software program. Built by a first responder who felt that notification time should be rapid to reduce response time significantly.<\/p>\n

How do you know a Computer-Based Holdup Panic Alarm is a Right Choice for Your Facility?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Do Staff Members Need a Way to Call for Assistance Safely?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Nurse\u2019s stations, HR offices, and receptionist\u2019s desks are some of the many places where workplace violence occurs. Any employee, no matter their position in the company, can become a victim of violence. A\u00a0holdup panic alarm<\/a>\u00a0from CRS Notify can offer these employees a better sense of security. The holdup panic button can allow them to call for help quickly and discreetly without drawing attention and putting themselves in danger. Computer-based holdup panic alarms make it easier to contact the authorities when a traditional 911 phone call might not be possible.<\/p>\n

      Do Staff Members Need a Way to be Notified of a Crisis?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      A holdup panic alarm from CRS Notify sends out mass notifications to employees and responders. This rapid alert cuts warning times down to seconds instead of minutes. Furthermore, this type of notification strengthens the response time of responders and allows employees to time to react efficiently to the crisis.

        Do You Want a Way to Warn Authorities Quickly Yet Discreetly?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Holdup panic buttons<\/a>\u00a0from CRS Notify help to protect employees from life-threatening incidents. Moreover, the rapid notification gives authorities needed information to respond to the crisis. With the click of your computer mouse or push of a button on a hardware device allows staff to send an alert without alerting the criminal.<\/p>\n

        Should I have a Policy on the Use of a Holdup Panic Alarm?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        Yes!\u00a0 I wouldn\u2019t be specific as to what would or would not constitute an emergency, and I wouldn\u2019t get too situational.\u00a0 I recommend making sure the policy clearly distinguishes ideas of what could be considered an emergency and what wouldn\u2019t be.\u00a0 The plan could be something as simple as any situation that is (or potentially) life-threatening.\u00a0 This will make it clear that whenever the panic is broadcasted that an emergency is underway and response tactics need to be deployed.<\/p>\n

        Where should I Put Holdup Panic Alarms in my Facility?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        This was difficult to narrow down since each institution and industry faces different situations or threats.\u00a0 At face value, I recommend putting them near all entry points and in areas that are more prone to outburst.\u00a0 The most important thing is to get first responders notified as soon as possible while ensuring staff is alerted and responding accordingly.<\/p>\n

        I hope these few topics gave you enough information to make a viable decision on what is best for your facility.\u00a0 Remember, everyone knows there\u2019s a problem, so focusing on solutions deserves more attention.\u00a0 Unfortunately, there isn\u2019t a fool-proof plan to ensure there won\u2019t be an injury; however, there are ways to have you and your staff respond to ongoing crises that can substantially reduce the opportunity for harm.<\/p>\n
