In the last post we had discussed Wireless Nurse Call Systems. In this post, we will discuss the basic components that go into making the Wireless Nurse Call System.

Call Points

The Medicare call points are available in two models, the Emergency and Cardiac Unit offering a red or blue pull on, push off switch and colour coded to meet HTM guidelines.

The call points are housed in unique, elegant enclosures for maximum visibility and ease of use and both models have a landscape design to allow for fitting within bedhead trunking.

The call points may well be subjected to food and drink spillages as well as other contaminants. Therefore, rather than using traditional buttons that trap infectious material, become stuck and unreliable, they use a wipe clean label with a Microban® anti-bacterial coating and the enclosure itself is embedded with anti-microbial additives. If anything is spilled onto the call point it can simply be wiped off and if the label is damaged it can be replaced in seconds, leaving the call point looking as good as new.

Each call point (other than ceiling pull cords) has clearly marked buttons providing (depending on model) Call, Attendance, Assistance, Emergency, Cardiac and Reset. Each of these use the HTM guideline colour coding standard. The button label has a luminescent coating making it easily visible in the dark.

The HTM 6500 is fitted with two sockets for pear push leads and / or auxiliary devices such as pressure mats, bed sensors and monitors. The nurse call points are powered by AA alkaline batteries which under normal conditions provide 2-3 years usage. Every bedroom call point has a built-in timer unit allowing bed and chair sensor pads to be added without the need for additional equipment.

7 inch Display Unit

The Medicare nurse call display panels offer a multitude of options designed to be unobtrusive for patients and ward staff alike.

The compact 7” HTM model allows for easy installation as either wall mounted or more mobile units fixed using a swivel bracket. This flexibility allows these compact units to be used in various locations like corridors and ward entrances, depending on the set-up requirements of the hospital.

The display’s high visibility screen enables multiple calls to be viewed on the same display.

There are many additional data options, and for larger hospital environments floor plans can be displayed on the screen to pin point the exact nurse call location.

Features:

  • Mapping facilities
  • Medication reminders
  • Staff attendance logs
  • Built-in call history
  • Call acceptance
  • Day/Night modes
  • Variety of call tones

15 inch Display Units

15” display panels can be programmed to show just a bed / ward number or more detail depending on the exact needs of the patient. They can be flat wall mounted or on swivel brackets allowing for use around the hospital. The display’s high visibility screen also enables you to view multiple calls on the same display.

We are able to provide displays with a variety of call tones and building floor plans on the screen with software providing specific location details of the call.

All Medicare nurse call systems are designed to be flexible, and many options and features can be applied to suit your requirements.

Messaging Feature:

This feature allows you to display important information at preset times of the day. It can be used to alert or notify staff of any specific needs of the residents, such as medication required or checks / duties that need to be carried out at specific times.

15″ Display Panels Provide:

  • Mapping facilities
  • Medication reminders
  • Staff attendance logs
