Healthcare, Clinics & Senior Living

Secure Treatment Areas. Protect Patient Data. Stay HIPAA Compliant.

In healthcare, security isn’t just about theft prevention. It’s about protecting patient privacy, regulated substances, and controlled access to sensitive spaces. Whether you’re running a dental practice, urgent care clinic, pharmacy, or senior living facility, you need access control systems that are reliable, compliant, and easy to manage.


CDS provides secure, code-aware solutions tailored for medical offices, clinics, pharmacies, and long-term care facilities across Southern California.
