Enhances hospital security status (vs. non-adoptors) Why scan the feet of newborns vs. other biometric methods The foot print does not change with age, it is just like a finger print. The problem with taking a babys finger print is that they tend to clench their hands early on and one has the risk of hurting the infant trying to get the hand open.... In addition, the fingers are really small. Iris scans will not work because babies tend to close their eyes often and their iris change shape often until age 2. What type of technology does CertaScan use? It uses LiveScan high resolution image capture technology. Is the technology safe for babies? The scanner uses low voltage imaging technology that is entirely safe. What does the CertaScan system consist of? The CertaScan system consists of hardware, patent pending software and a system for scanning newborn footprints. The system is supported by installation, training and maintenance services provided by the company. Hospitals can also choose to add infant security photos and mom's index fingerprints to the digital records. Does CertaScan provide footprint keepsakes to moms for free? Yes. When a nurse scans a babys foot, a copy of the foot print is printed out on an attractive Babys First Foot Print certificate with the babys name, birth date and time, weight and height. The hospitals logo is also put on the certificate. When mom gets home, she can go to the company's website, www.firstfootprint.com and (1) download and print a copy of the certificate she received at the hospital, (2) download a digital copy of her baby's footprint for safekeeping and (3) customize her newborn's footprint certificate by adding baby's name in a choice of fonts, adding color to the certificate and placing a choice of borders around it. CertaScan is HIPAA compliant. The company does not have any access to Patient Medical Information.
