A digital nurse call system notifies medical staff when a resident is in need of medical attention and transmits the precise location of the person who has raised the alarm. An available nurse or a carer responds to the call immediately, and provides the required help and support, or summons additional assistance if required.
Patients in need of medical help could be left in a potentially dangerous situation without a simple and convenient means to call nursing staff. People can access emergency medical assistance services more quickly via call systems, which can prevent them from coming to major harm.
