Overview: Cygnet Healthcare Brunel, a leading mental health care provider in Henbury, Bristol, approached Choice Networks to upgrade their security infrastructure. The goal was to ensure the safety of staff and service users through a robust, reliable CCTV system. We were tasked with delivering a comprehensive surveillance solution tailored to the hospital’s specific needs.

The Challenge: Healthcare environments like Cygnet Healthcare require high standards of safety and security. The hospital needed a cutting-edge CCTV system that could monitor multiple areas and ensure staff and patient safety without compromising privacy or operational flow. Additionally, compliance with fire safety regulations and British Standards was paramount to ensure a safe and secure installation.

Our Solution: To meet the needs of Cygnet Healthcare Brunel, Choice Networks installed 190 CCTV cameras using the highly advanced ‘Genie’ CCTV system. This included the installation of Category 6 cabling to ensure fast, reliable data transmission throughout the facility.

Key features of the installation include:

5MP Anti-Vandal Dome Cameras: Installed throughout the hospital, these cameras provide high-quality video footage and are designed to withstand potential vandalism, offering long-lasting durability in a healthcare setting.
Complete Setup and Configuration: We delivered a fully configured system that integrates seamlessly with Cygnet’s operations. This included setting up a secure PC server that allows both on-site and remote access via a secure VPN, ensuring that authorised personnel can monitor the system at any time.
Compliance with Fire Safety Regulations: The installation adhered to BS standards, including the use of B2CA cable jackets and effective fire-stopping to ensure the safety and integrity of the building.
Results: Cygnet Healthcare Brunel now benefits from enhanced security with 24/7 surveillance coverage across the facility. The system provides staff with peace of mind, knowing that both their safety and the safety of service users are prioritised. The new system ensures compliance with fire safety standards and offers reliable performance through high-quality components and secure remote access.
