Drug and controlled substance theft
Dispensaries, drug fridges and sample cupboards need cameras plus access logs, and pharmacies need robbery deterrence at the counter.
Security Camera Installation for Clinics & Medical Offices
We install camera systems for medical, dental, physio, chiropractic and veterinary clinics, pharmacies and labs across Toronto and the GTA: reception, waiting rooms, entrances, dispensaries, drug storage, staff doors and parking, placed to respect Ontario health privacy law and never inside treatment rooms.

- 3-year warranty on the installation

What a clinic surveillance system has to solve
We start every design with the incidents you actually deal with, then put a camera where each one happens. These are the five we plan for on every clinic job.
Staff safety at reception
Aggression at the front desk is the most common incident in clinics. Visible cameras and a panic button reduce it and record it.
Slip, fall and injury claims
Waiting rooms, corridors and icy entrances generate claims that footage defends.
Equipment and laptop theft
Portable medical and IT equipment walks out through staff doors. Door cameras record who and when.
Privacy complaints
A camera in the wrong place is a PHIPA breach. Correct placement and documentation prevent it.
Where the security cameras go in a clinic
A security camera installation plan for clinics and medical offices is a list of positions, not a camera count. This is the coverage plan we start from on the site visit and adapt to your building.

Mounting heights are our field standard: around 3 metres for faces, 4 to 5 for overviews, 6 and up for yards with a narrow lens or a PTZ. Lens choice is set per position during the site visit.
Best security cameras for clinics
These are the camera types we specify most often for clinics and medical offices, and the positions they earn on a clinic plan. We install them from Uniview, Axis, Hikvision, Dahua, Ubiquiti and Verkada depending on the budget and the software you want to live in.
Dome cameras
Vandal-resistant domes for lobbies, corridors, parking garages and retail floors. Nobody can tell where the lens points, and the housing takes a hit without losing the picture.
Turret cameras
Our default outdoor camera for storefronts, loading docks and yards. The ball-in-socket design aims easily, the IR sits away from the lens so there is no glare, and the housing shrugs off snow.
Discreet cameras
Small pinhole and covert cameras for cash rooms, stockrooms and offices where a visible camera would change behaviour or spoil the look of the space.
Bullet cameras
Long-range cameras for fence lines, laneways, gates and large parking lots. Varifocal lenses let us read a plate or a face from 30 metres and beyond.
Fisheye and 360 cameras
One ceiling camera that sees a whole open floor with no blind spot. We use them in packing areas, showrooms and restaurants where wall space is scarce.
More clinic camera system features we specify

Clinic security camera questions we get asked
Straight answers on camera count, equipment, retention and cost. If yours is not here, call us and ask.
Are security cameras allowed in a medical or dental clinic in Ontario?
Yes, in public and staff areas: entrances, reception, waiting rooms, corridors, dispensaries and parking. Not in treatment or examination rooms, and not pointed at screens or charts. The Privacy Commissioner has ruled against clinics that ignored that line.
What about reception screens showing patient records?
We add privacy masks so the camera records the desk area but blacks out monitors, and we angle cameras so charts and screens are not in frame.
Can cameras help with controlled substances?
Yes. A camera inside the dispensary or drug room, a reader on the door and the two linked together give you who accessed what and when.
Who can view the footage?
Whoever your policy allows, usually the owners and the privacy officer. We set role-based access, encrypted exports and a recorder in a locked room.
Do you install during clinic hours?
No. Evenings or weekends, with finishes protected.
What does a clinic camera system cost?
A single-practitioner clinic runs $2,500 to $4,500 installed, a multi-room clinic or pharmacy $5,000 to $10,000, and a medical building $12,000 to $28,000.
