Nurse Call Integration

ELA NurseCall SystemsIntegration of nurse call systems with wireless telephones or pagers is one of the most prevalent initiatives for hospitals and nursing directors because it improves staff productivity, reduces response times to patient requests, and helps increase overall patient satisfaction.

CarePlus products integrate with all communication systems and provide immediate notification to nursing staff of nursecall events on any wireless device, such as wireless telephones, pagers, PDA’s and large screen wall boards.

By automating notification to wireless devices, nursing staff receive notification that a patient is in need in less than a few seconds. In addition with modern nursecall systems, nursing staff are able to press a single button on their wireless phone and speak directly to the patient, increasing both patient satisfaction and staff efficiency at the same time.

Events can be automaticly sent directly to visiting speciaists mobile phones as an SMS or email.
