Courtney Thorne in Partnership with VWS

Courtney Thorne is delighted to welcome “VWS” as our business partner promoting and selling Courtney Thorne’s innovative nurse call solutions throughout Scotland. Courtney Thorne has been manufacturing, selling, and maintaining nurse call solutions for hospitals and care homes for 50 years throughout the UK and across the world. Its wireless technology is relied upon by many NHS trusts, care groups, and individual care homes.

Who are VWS?

VWS has over 30 years of experience and expertise in the fields of security, fire safety, and networking technologies – this pedigree made them the clear choice to work with. The team at VWS has been going through extensive training so they are fully conversant with Courtney Thorne’s Nurse Call Systems.  This relationship will enable VWS to review current Nurse Call provisioning in Hospitals and Care Homes across Scotland and make insightful recommendations as to how Courtney Thorne’s technology improves the health and care environments for staff, residents and patients, management, and homeowners. VWS will be self-sufficient in selling, installing, and maintaining nurse call systems alongside their customer’s requirements for fire and security solutions within their portfolio.

With offices in Glasgow and Dundee, VWS is ideally positioned to cover all over Scotland and deploy highly Skilled engineers should any challenges arise.

Courtney Thorne’s Sales and Marketing Director, Dave Hewitt said

“I am very pleased that VWS chose Courtney Thorne as their go-to nurse call solution provider, we now have plans to work closely together and offer innovative solutions coupled with exemplary service.”

VWS’s Head of Business Development, Hugh Wilson, said

“The Team at VWS are delighted to have entered this exciting partnership with Courtney Thorne. One of the key reasons we chose Courtney Thorne is the backward compatibility of their products. Many other manufacturers bring out new products which require their customers to continually spend significant funds updating unsupported systems. New products Courtney Thorne develop are fully compatible with legacy systems some going back up to 30 years. This commitment ensures not just the installation, but the lifecycle cost is kept as low as possible. Courtney Thorne Care Solutions can be designed and deployed very quickly for both New Build and upgrade projects. This is particularly important at difficult times like now, when we are all trying to keep contact with others to a minimum.

In addition, it is fantastic to work with a UK manufacturer who have a UK based Technical Support Team. Sometimes it can be a challenge dealing with overseas manufacturers with poor local UK support. VWS are looking forward to building a long-term relationship with the Team at Courtney Thorne. Please feel free to contact us to find out more about how our new partnership can help provide the right solution for your organisation.”
