Do you relate to the following Hospital applications? We have the solution for you!

Problem:

Our Nurse Call system is old. When a patient presses a call button, a loud bell rings and lights flash on a panel to call for attention. We want to upgrade to a wireless paging system at a minimum cost.

DigiPager Solution:

Connect existing pushbutton wiring to PageAlert modules and use a DigiPager Wireless unit. Give a Cricket pager to each Nurse. When a pushbutton is pressed, silently within seconds, DigiPager transmits the room number to a selected Nurse.

We have a Rauland-Borg Nurse Call Responder IV system that works well in delivering messages to an old paging transmitter that is not very reliable and fails very often. Also, Hospital staff wants to page Nurses by using any touch-tone phone.

QUIKPAGER Wireless Solution:

Connect the Rauland-Borg Nurse Call system (or any Nurse Call System designed for pocket pagers), to QUIKPAGER Wireless. Messages will flow fast and smoothly. Priority messages will be sent immediately over other messages in process. Anyone can call QUIKPAGER by dialing a local extension number and page people by following voice prompts.

Patients roam the Hospital and we need to immediately help them in case of an emergency. We also need to move patients in beds and we don't have access to wired call buttons. We need a wireless alert paging system to page nurses giving the name and current location of the patients.

PageAlert Wireless Solution

Use the CMX223 wristband PageAlert wireless transmitter for patients. Install PageAlert Wireless locator devices throughout your building according to identified zones. Use QUIKPAGER Wireless to send to pocket text pagers the name of patient and their location when they press the wristband pushbutton for help.

For more effective staff communication, we provided Nurses with pocket wireless phones. Today, they carry the phone for voice communication and the pocket pager for messages from the Nurse Call system. We want to page Nurse Calls messages to the wireless telephones and eliminate the pager.

QUIKTEL Wireless Solution

QUIKTEL Wireless receives text messages from the Nurse Call system. Instantly, QUIKTEL Wireless dials the corresponding wireless phone and delivers the text message converted to voice. For example, the Nurse Call system needs to page text message "Room 234 code blue" to nurse Mary. QUIKTEL Wireless is programmed to dial Mary's phone for messages from room 234. When she answers, she hears a voice saying "ROOM 234 CODE BLUE". She may enter a programmable code for acknowledgment. Voice messages can also be sent to two-way radios.

Problem

In addition to paging messages from the Nurse Call system, our switchboard operators need to page people while answering calls.

QUIKPAGER 2400 Solution

Problem:

We have two Hospital buildings separated by 25 miles. Messages are originated in each Hospital by their telephone operators and their Nurse Call system. We need to page the same text message in both locations.

QUIKPAGER Wireless LINK Solution

Use a standard telephone line to establish a link in between two QUIKPAGER Wireless at each Hospital. After a QUIKPAGER pages locally a message, it sends the same message over the telephone line to the other QUIKPAGER for transmission. One QUIKPAGER dials the other QUIKPAGER and remains permanently connected. If the connection is broken, QUIKPAGER dials again to reestablish the connection. QUIKPAGER can also be programmed to only dial when there is a message to transmit to the other Hospital.
