			<title>Product Launch - Wrist / Neck Pendant</title>
			<link>http://www.nursecallsystems.co.uk/product-launch-wrist-neck-pendant/</link>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;We are delighted to announce the launch of the Wrist &amp;amp; Neck Pendant model &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nursecallsystems.co.uk/[sitetree_link id=100]#CT-WNP&quot;&gt;CT-WNP&lt;/a&gt; which is an exclusive addition to the 08 Nurse Call System.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Wrist &amp;amp; Neck Pendant utilises wireless radio technology for call messages, a technology which Courtney-Thorne has led for many years plus infra-red technology for pendant location so the &lt;strong&gt;wearer can be located quicly and accurately.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;captionImage left&quot; style=&quot;width: 160px;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nursecallsystems.co.uk/[sitetree_link id=100]#CT-WNP&quot;&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;left&quot; src=&quot;http://www.nursecallsystems.co.uk/assets/Product-Thumbs/CT-WNP-wrist-thumb.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;CT-WNP&quot; title=&quot;Wrist / Neck Pendant&quot; width=&quot;160&quot; height=&quot;140&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;caption&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Modern design which is comfortable to wear and readily accepted by wearers &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Elasticated adjustable wrist strap and anti ligature lanyard ensure ease of use and wearer safety&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Offers permanent reassurance that assistance can be quickly summoned &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Flashing LED activation on button press for user reassurance that a call has been made &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Easy call reset for carers &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Economical use with  2+ years battery life &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Hygienic in use thanks to a wipe clean design and full submersion protection to IP67.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;p&gt;This brand new and unique concept in design is a huge step forward for the care industry because the cleverly conceived idea provides the opportunity for each resident to have their own call pendant with them at all times. The new call pendant can be either worn in the more traditional way, around the neck, or alternatively as a wrist watch style call pendant.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Courtney-Thorne Wrist &amp;amp; Neck Pendant, the next step forward in nurse call technology making the Courtney-Thorne 08 System the clear choice for comprehensive, resident safety focused nurse call systems………………….&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Courtney-Thorne – Technology for those who care&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

			<title>News Release - Economy+ System Launched</title>
			<link>http://www.nursecallsystems.co.uk/news-release-economy-system-launched/</link>
			<description>&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;News release							13 March 2012&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Courtney-Thorne launch entry model for budget savvy homes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;A ‘budget friendly’ nurse call system has been developed and launched by Courtney-Thorne. The Economy+ wireless nurse system is ideally suited to the smaller care home or care home groups.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;Economy+ still features a 15” touchscreen panel with audio speaker, location mapping and live call list. It simply has other features omitted, such as extended zoning capability and remote viewable call data, staff attack integration, that are more popular with the larger groups of care homes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;After completing a customer research survey many smaller, individual care homes will be pleased to see Courtney-Thorne returning to their routes by launching the streamlined model. They now offer nurse call solutions for all size homes and groups ranging from the new entry model to the latest wireless systems that fully integrate with telephony and patient records through tablets and smart phones.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;Graham Vickrage of Courtney-Thorne comments: “We wanted to deliver something for the smaller care home that is looking to upgrade their system but doesn’t want or can’t afford an all singing and dancing system with features they just wouldn’t use. The Economy+ is flexible and extendible enough to respond to both a carers and residents’ needs. We believe it is the best combination of system and value in the nurse call market today.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;Economy+ is available through the many UK Courtney-Thorne resellers or direct from the Dorset based manufacturer. Please Freephone &lt;span style=&quot;background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;&quot;&gt;0800 068 7419 for more information.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;&quot;&gt;ENDS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
