The acute care environment is more demanding than ever. Nurse Managers must accomplish more while handling continual pressure on staff levels. SimplexGrinnell will use today’s powerful nurse call technology to help craft a solution for your unique challenges. In addition to keeping pace with Joint Commission requirements, you can improve staff response time, leading to elevated patient satisfaction scores in Press Ganey* and other performance surveys.   

Our feature-rich nurse call systems – Sentinel 500™ Touch and EZ Care™ VITALTouch™ – make the caregiver’s job easier.

• Simply touch the color floor screen on the master console to display patient care information and staff location. Calls are automatically routed according to rules you define
  
• Wireless interfaces send call data to mobile phones or pagers, so nurses move about freely
  
• Use wireless phones to quickly connect staff to patients, physicians and other departments within and outside the hospital
  
• Monitors, IV pumps and other vital equipment are easily tied in
  
• Staff assignments and shift changes take less than a minute
  
• Several master styles from which to choose   

By integrating nurse call with supporting technologies, we can help you extend their power. Personnel and asset location dramatically reduces wasted time and steps. Infant abduction prevention enhances security in OB and pediatric units. Wander prevention and fall protection address the special safety needs of geriatric patients. And our management reporting tools give you valuable data to improve performance and manage risk. 

Fully scalable for a single unit or networked for an entire medical center, the systems we install require minimal training. Consistent presentation and intuitive use let staff change units without time lost learning new procedures.
