NURSE CALLING SYSTEM
Nurse call systems are integral to patient treatment and care. They alert nursing staff to patient needs and emergent situations. Timely response is the key to high-quality patient care, which requires minimized redundancy throughout the nurse-call workflow.
Nurse call system consists of five components:
- A central console
- A remote switching device for each patient or patient room
- Corridor or intermediate station lights
- Low-voltage power supplies
- Interconnecting wiring
