Proper CCTV placement ensures maximum coverage while maintaining patient privacy. Key locations include:

  • Main entrances and exits – Monitors all visitors and staff.
  • Reception and waiting areas – Helps track patient flow and security threats.
  • Corridors and hallways – Ensures controlled movement within the clinic.
  • Medication storage and pharmacy rooms – Prevents unauthorised access to controlled substances.
  • Car parks and building exteriors – Deters theft and protects staff working after hours.

To comply with privacy laws, CCTV should not be placed in consultation rooms, patient restrooms, or changing areas.
