Collin County Jail Uses welloStation™ To Stop Disease Spread Before It Starts
Proven over the past three years at the Collin County Jail, Captain Bryce Thompson and his staff have used this hands-free, fever detection and notification technology to prevent inmate infection spread at intake.
Here’s what Captain Thompson has to say about how welloStation™ helps…
“Since the ebola case in Dallas three years ago, we have used the welloStation™ to screen inmates at intake for fever. We like the fact that the station is hands-free and self service. If a fever is detected, we are immediately notified.
I really like that the welloStation™ protects our staff and our inmates by keeping infectious persons out of the jail.”

Free App Tells You When You’re At Risk Of Infection Spread
The weather has a lot to do with the spread of disease. Air quality, humidity and a number of other factors amount to significantly more favorable conditions for infection spread. The best defense to disease spread is being prepared, and that’s why we created the welloWatch™ app.
The app uses real-time, geo-specific susceptibility risk updates to your location, making it easier to predict days when your staff and inmates are at higher risk of contagion spread. It is available for free in the App Store and on Google Play.
