Which nurse call system is better for Hospitals?

Acute healthcare environments depend on forward-thinking technologies to protect and save the lives of those in their care. When patients present with diverse illnesses or traumas, only robust and reliable support services that deliver help fast at the touch of a button or pull cord will suffice in hospitals and other acute care settings.

Courtney Thorne’s Altra Health and Connect Health nurse call systems are both tailored to support the demands and resources in busy hospitals. All of our nurse call systems for hospitals are wireless too, which ensures both installation and maintenance is seamless with virtually no disruption to patients and staff.

Critical to the ability of patients to call for nursing help at their bedside or elsewhere in the hospital and to communicate remotely with clinical staff is compliance with HTM 08-03 10.1 and Category 1 radio receiver use. Category 1 is the highest performance receiver level used where the operation of an SRD (Short Range Device) is imperative in lifesaving situations. Altra Health is fully compliant with all guidelines and regulations.
