SCRAM™
www.alcoholmonitoring.com
- SCRAM is the first and only Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitor™ system
in the world that can accurately, affordably and continuously test a subject's
alcohol consumption.
- SCRAM uses Transdermal Alcohol Testing, a technology that that measures
the alcohol migrating through the skin—a predictable result of alcohol
consumption—to determine the subject's Transdermal Alcohol Concentration™ (TAC™).
- SCRAM enables monitoring agencies to remotely
detect alcohol consumption on a 24/7 basis and intervene immediately upon
notification when a subject does consume alcohol.
- SCRAM saves monitoring agencies and taxpayers money by reducing time spent
on traditional testing and monitoring procedures.
- There is no need for the monitoring or treatment agencies to invest in specialized
testing equipment.
- Probation and parole, community and work release program and house arrest
program personnel can spend less time monitoring their caseload and more
time on treatment and correction.
- Such electronic monitoring can help reduce jail and prison populations while
allowing non-violent offenders and those on probation or parole to hold jobs
in the community when they might otherwise be unable to stay away from alcohol.
The SCRAM system includes:
- A light-weight, tamper-resistant, water-resistant bracelet to be worn
on the subject's ankle 24/7. The bracelet includes the TAC measuring
device and electronic sensors to detect and store data about any tampering
attempts.
- A SCRAM modem in the subject's home that uses secure radio frequency
communications to send stored data to SCRAMNET via a standard telephone
line.
- SCRAMNET, a web-based service accessible to monitoring agency personnel
via the Internet with standard browsers.
SCRAM has:
- Patented and powerful tamper detection features.
- Secure and easy data storage and retrieval features.
- Customizable testing and reporting schedules.
