Ascom – Secure IP in Health Care Communication
Hospitals have special requirements when it comes to carrying out patient services precisely and accurately. Ascom has a long tradition of providing hospital environments with innovative solutions for on-site wireless communication. Our products and applications reduce waiting time and speed up response in critical situations.

In healthcare, seconds can make the difference between life and death. Mobile communication solutions from Ascom enable you to respond, decide and act quickly. You improve healthcare quality and increase patient satisfaction.

MISSION-CRITICAL HOSPITAL COMMUNICATION
Information and often related medical/technical alarms can be received from patients and other caregivers, from computers and databases, from monitoring equipment and medical devices. It will reach the right, pre-assigned person immediately, wherever he or she is. The receiver will know instantly when new information is available. This makes the whole organisation more agile, more productive.

Ascom communications systems support all hospital departments and processes. They can create a seamless flow of mission-critical information from appointment scheduling or emergency intake to registration, clinical care and billing. We customise solutions based on the needs of each department or speciality. We adapt functionality to support existing work processes and integrate wireless communications with other systems already in use.

ASCOM TELECARE IP – NURSE CALL SYSTEM
Convergence of networks is nowadays a hot topic and hospitals are no exception to this trend. That is why we in Ascom are launching a new generation nurse call system based on IP technology – our teleCARE IP system.

However only using IP is not enough, we made it secure and safe under all circumstances, so that we can live up to our motto, “a call will never be lost”. Our system is just doing that. Not only does it ensure a high level of reliability and safety, also fall back scenarios are standard in the system available. But we are doing more.

We deliver the call to the responsible nurse or nurses and if she/he is busy the call is escalated to the next. Personal call and information is delivered to you while you are on the move, ensuring an assistive and effective way of working.

Total freedom in functionality and cross department information, all is standard in Ascom teleCARE IP. Integration with mobile telephony on DECT, IP-DECT or WiFi is embedded in our approach.

ASCOM TELECARE WP – WIRELESS NURSE CALL
Ascom teleCARE WP – wireless nurse call with positioning – employs the latest wireless technology to enhance safety, comfort and efficiency in care and nursing homes. It allows you to locate residents when they call for assistance. Location accuracy is tailored to your needs and the layout of your facility. All calls are monitored by the system, indicating from which zone the person is calling.

Safety: residents/patients can easily reach the button to call for help
Re-assurance: assistance is a button-push away
Efficiency: the system indicates who called and from where
The Ascom teleCARE WP comes with a registration function. That means records are kept of who activated the call, including when and where, who responded to the call and how long it took. This allows care providers to swiftly answer questions from family members and supervisory agencies.
