A monitoring apparatus and method for a hospital or other health care facility includes a plurality of sensors for determining operating states of a plurality of devices, respectively. The devices may include a refrigerator for storing blood, medicine, foods or other substances requiring close monitoring, as well as a lock box drug cabinet, for example. Each sensor provides operating state information to a transceiver, which outputs it to an access point. The access point provides the received information to a server, which determines, based on the received information, whether or not personnel at the hospital need to be notified in order to correct a problem with one or more of the devices being monitored.
