Palmetto Health Richland provides in-patient and out-patient services at its Columbia campus, which includes Palmetto Richland Memorial Hospital, Children’s Hospital and Heart Hospital.
These hospitals and the other buildings on the campus are equipped with a card-based access control system that controls entry and exit activity to restricted or sensitive areas. The card system is also used for access to general employee areas, equipment closets, telecom rooms, IT closets and more. A set of master access control keys allow entry to any of the areas secured by the card access system and the hospital’s Security Services is responsible for provisioning these master keys.
