According to The Aucklander, an 11-day-old baby
was snatched from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Auckland Hospital
just under 2 weeks ago. The Police sent out a public alert for any
information regarding the baby the night of the abduction, with a
tip-off from a member of the public coming the following morning.
"Jacob has been found along with his mother.
The baby was alive and well when police officers arrived," said
Northern Police Communications spokesman Inspector Peter Raynes. The
investigation team are assessing whether to press charges.
Luckily this situation had a positive outcome with
no harm caused to the infant. Unfortunately, there are many cases
where the result is quite the opposite, amounting to indescribable
grief for families and a bad reputation for those hospitals involved.
In order to help protect these babies, their
families and your business, Integrated Wireless (IW) deploy Infant
Protection Systems (IPS) to hospitals Australia-wide. Tamper-proof
baby tags are worn by the infant, triggering an alarm when passing
one of many security grade RFID receivers distributed throughout the
ward at every door. This alarm is sent to security and/or nursing
staff and the situation is resolved quickly and efficiently.
