This summer, construction should be completed on the nine-story, 480,000 square foot addition to Jacobi Medical Center, in the Bronx in New York. The facility will provide care for approximately 1.2 million New York City patients.
From its inception, one of the facility’s chief goals has been to provide the latest in electronic security surveillance and monitoring systems. The center currently has several existing systems in place, including a Software House (Lexington, Mass.) access control system and an analog security video system consisting of switchers, videocassette recorders and monitors from a variety of manufacturers.
