Greg Haralson, the CEO of Memorial Hermann at the TMC, says how his entry points have been reconfigured have made a drastic difference, “Having these scanners have been a real game-changer for us.”The temperature readers take social distancing into account. Channel 2 Investigates took the reads at two locations in less than twenty seconds and the difference was a one-tenth of a degree. Now Memorial Hermann is looking to expand the approach system-wide for every public entrance that it has at all of its hospitals. “These Temperature detection systems are going all over the place," said Michael Green, president of Athena Security.
