Safety Measures at AtlantiCare Facilities
AtlantiCare Safety Guidelines
At AtlantiCare, your health and safety are our top priorities.
We want you to feel secure while visiting our facilities and we are committed to maintaining a safe, respectful and dignified environment for all.
To further enhance your safety, we are implementing an advanced security measure known as the Evolv weapons detection system.
This page will provide you with important information about this system, what you can expect when entering our facilities, and tips for a smooth and stress-free security screening process.
Commitment to safety: A weapons-free campus
We have a long-standing commitment to maintaining weapons-free hospitals and practices. Through 2025, we will be installing and using Evolv units in our hospitals.
What we are doing and what to expect
The Evolv system is a highly reliable and touchless screening system designed to accurately detect weapons. It operates at high speeds and is capable of screening large numbers of people. This cuts down on crowded security lines and helps avoid unnecessary delays.
The Evolv system will allow you to move through security quicker.
Evolv will screen for weapons and dangerous items, including:
- firearms, whether or not you are licensed to carry the weapon
- knives
- clubs
- explosive devices
- pepper spray or bear spray
- shanks
- any item that may be classified as a weapon
Detected weapons and dangerous items must be surrendered or taken home.
