Technology
Safety technology that grows with your program.
Risk doesn't wait for the next scheduled round. VisibleHand starts with digital safety checks, then adds verification and real-time safety alerts to help you see risk in the moments between them. Each layer builds on the one before it.
The platform
Three layers of safety visibility.
Each layer closes a different gap where risk hides. Start with digital rounding. Add verification when you need proof of presence. Add real-time alerts when you need location awareness between checks.
Foundation
Digital Rounding
Replace paper rounding with real-time digital safety checks.
Digital Rounding is the foundation of VisibleHand. It replaces clipboards and paper Q15 forms with handheld rounding devices that make safety checks faster, more reliable, and instantly visible to supervisors.
What you get
- Handheld rounding devices for staff
- Real-time safety checks shared across the team
- Live dashboards show check status across all units
- Focused reports for audits and surveys
- Easy data access and exports
- Alerts for late or missed checks
Phones included with full device management

Proximity Verification
Verify that staff were physically present during every required observation.
Every safety check is confirmed by proximity between the staff member’s rounding device and the patient’s secure wrist wearable, verifying the round happened in person. Automatic accountability, without constant camera reviews.
What you get
- Patient wearables confirm physical presence
- Every check verified as in-person or unverified
- Supervisors see verification status in real time
- Accountability without requiring cameras
- Supports both Nurse and Safety checks
- Clear evidence for incident investigations
Ongoing beacon and band replenishment included with your subscription. No hidden costs.

Real-Time Safety Alerts
Receive configurable, real-time alerts based on patient location awareness.
Real-Time Safety Alerts build on patient wearables by adding room-level location awareness through low-profile sensors placed throughout the unit. Configure alerts for situations like a patient entering another patient's room, entering a restricted area, or requiring staff attention based on location.
What you get
- Location-based safety signals across the facility
- Configurable alerts for restricted areas
- Notifications when patients need attention
- Faster response to developing situations
- Location-based safety signals without cameras
- Supports high-acuity and secure environments

Environment of Care Checks
Environment of Care (EoC) checks ensure high-risk and secure areas are inspected consistently. VisibleHand supports digital EoC checklists with optional location verification at required inspection points, helping facilities prepare for surveys and maintain accountability for safety-critical spaces.
Digital inspection checklists
Replace paper forms with digital checklists that guide staff through required inspection items.
Verified checks at required points
Optional location verification confirms staff completed checks at designated inspection locations.
Alerts for missed inspections
Supervisors receive alerts when required inspections are late or incomplete.
Documentation ready when surveyors ask
Complete inspection history with timestamps and verification status.
Which option solves which problem?
Match your challenge to the right solution.
Each layer addresses specific operational challenges. Start where you are and grow as your needs evolve.
| Challenge | Solution | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Paper rounding is slow and hard to audit | Digital Rounding | Digital safety checks with real-time dashboards and compliance reports |
| No way to verify checks happened in person | Proximity Verification | Patient wearables verify staff were physically present during each observation |
| Blind spots between scheduled checks | Real-Time Safety Alerts | Location-based alerts when patients enter restricted areas or need attention |
| EoC inspections inconsistent or undocumented | Environment of Care Checks | Digital checklists with optional location verification for high-risk areas |
