The history of Hospital Raja Permaisuri Bainun (HRPB) began in 1891 as a District Hospital known as Ipoh Hospital with a capacity of 50 beds only. Since then, the hospital has undergone various major developments, which include the 8-storey main building (1980), Specialist Clinic Complex (1992) and the Daily treatment Complex (2005). As of now, the hospital is Malaysia's third largest hospital after the Kuala Lumpur Hospital and the Penang Hospital with a capacity of 990 beds, 16 surgical halls, 16 beds of adult care units, 8 beds of heart treatment units, 17 beds of intensive care units for children (PICU) and 20 beds neonatal treatment units.
Being a hospital with that many infrastructures at hand, it is thus not surprising that HRPB would want a better security in placed. From hospitalized patients to expensive medicine storage rooms, the security factor should be maintained at all times high to ensure that their patients received the best service possible. This particular aspect is especially noted by Mr. Balaacandar, the security provider of HRPB, and has therefore taken the notion to seek out a modern solution for their security management system.
