The First School in the US with Ident-A-Kid's New Temp Chek™ Plus Device

    ST. PETERSBURG, FL, October 07, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ident-A-Kid, a company specializing in school safety, has released a new solution that allows schools to quickly and accurately read an individual's temperature before entering a school campus. Temp Chek™ Plus is a completely contactless temperature scanner for schools that scans a person's palm, displays their temperature on a screen, and dispenses hand sanitizer in one quick step. If a healthy temperature is measured, Temp Chek™ Plus will display green lights and no alarm. However, if an individual reads higher than 99.1 degrees, Temp Chek™ Plus will display red lights and emit a beeping alarm to alert staff.

The Temp Chek™ Plus device has a small footprint and can be used in several places around a school, including the school entrance, hallways, and the cafeteria. Ident-A-Kid installed its first Temp Chek™ Plus device in the front lobby of Rankin Elementary in Kalispell, MT. "It has been super popular!" said Merisa Murray, Rankin's Principal.

As schools across the country create plans for returning students and staff, many require temperature checks for everyone entering campus. Ident-A-Kid aims to provide school districts with an affordable, easy-to-use option that will meet this requirement.

"By providing Temp Chek™ Plus for contactless temperature screenings and hand sanitization, we're helping prevent the spread of illnesses in schools," stated Rick Hagan, CEO of Ident-A-Kid.

Ident-A-Kid is a leading provider of school safety services, including visitor management. Founded in 1986 and based in St. Petersburg, FL, Ident-A-Kid's visitor management software tracks over 150,000 school check-ins a day and recorded 40 million check-ins last year.
