Nurse Call System (Skilled Nursing)

The eCallcarecenter nurse call system has helped some care providers reach cost savings of up to 68% over five years.

The eCallcarecenter nurse call system provides the industry's most cost effective, flexible and capable platform for implementing not only a nurse call system, but the network infrastructure that allows care providers to run many systems such as electronic health records, communications and billing data programs on one secure, industry standard Wi-Fi platform.  The increased flexibility and capability of the Wi-Fi platform equals cost savings for care providers.

    Why is a Wi-Fi solution so beneficial?

    Organizations building or renovating a senior living or long term care facility face an important decision in selecting a nurse call system.  A key part of this decision is considering a system's capabilities in relation to its cost.

    The eCallcarecenter system is more cost effective, more flexible and more capable than any stand alone nurse call system.  The reason that the eCallcarecenter system is so much more capable and cost effective is because the non-proprietary Wi-Fi platform can support more than just a nurse call system. The Wi-Fi network can also support:

  • electronic health record management
  • billing data
  • communications (staff telephony)
  • remote monitoring
  • vital sign monitoring
  • internet connectivity for staff, residents and guests throughout the facility
  • With a traditional stand alone nurse call system, care facilities are forced to have individual solutions for each of the many operations required to run a care center.  Multiple separate solutions mean multiple network infrastructures, each with their own maintenance and operating costs. A non-proprietary Wi-Fi network solution greatly simplifies this issue. Care providers are able to operate multiple services on one network. Not only does a non-proprietary Wi-Fi solution lower operating costs, it also helps ensure that a care facility will not become locked into an obsolete proprietary solution.

    How It Works

    In a skilled nursing setting a combination of different call devices, including: Call Pendants, Pull Cords, Call Panels and Call Jacks, are used in conjunction with Nurse Call Lights and portable phones to give staff immediate information about alerts.  Nurse Call Lights mounted outside of the residences also give staff immediate visual and audio feedback about an alert through a combination of lights and tones.

    Call Panels and Call Jacks can also be integrated
    into the Nurse Call System to meet individual needs.
