JRC has created an online digital video recording system, using March Network's Digital Video Recorders (DVRs). Based on a series of hard disks, the March Network DVRs are providing JRC with on-demand video recording and recall, remotely accessible by authorized users via the JRC's own network. As a result, JRC managers can see what is happening anywhere in their facility at any time. Moreover, video "monitors" can recall events from the DVRs for fast analysis, without wasting time fast-fowarding through videotapes.
A similar system of digital video recording is used to monitor and record what goes on in JRC's classrooms and during transportation on the school buses and vans. |
The Judge Rotenberg Center
relies on video surveillance to help insure that its staff members are
carrying out their duties consistently and properly. By monitoring
staff-student interactions in the JRC's school, residential homes,
transitional apartments and vehicles, JRC can ensure consistent,
constructive staff reactions to the students' behaviors.
Using this system, a special
team of Quality Control Monitors is assigned to watch what goes on in each
of JRC's residences in real time throughout the evening and overnight. As
soon as such a Monitor spots any action by staff members that needs
correction, the monitor places a telephone call to the residence and
brings the matter to the attention of the staff member in question.
