Nurse Call Systems

A nurse call point can raise a routine call and higher-priority calls such as assistance or emergency, depending on the system it is part of. The Intercall L722 non-audio call point has 5 levels of call: call, assistance, priority, emergency and staff presence. The C-TEC QT602E addressable call point includes Standard, Ensuite, Help Required and Emergency calls, with a Call button, Reset button and red/green confidence light.

Yes, a pendant lets a patient trigger a call through an infrared or radio receiver instead of a call lead. The C-TEC QT432 and QT432W pendants let patients in bedrooms and communal areas trigger standard calls via a Quantec infrared call point, ceiling receiver or radio receiver, which avoids long, potentially hazardous tail call leads. The QT432W has a 10m line-of-sight IR transmitting range.

A nurse call display shows the highest priority calls first, and overdoor lights change their flash pattern to show urgency. The C-TEC QT608C/SS corridor display adds a message saying how many calls are waiting, and its flash and sounder rates intensify to reflect the urgency of incoming calls. Outside rooms, the QT606 slave overdoor light changes its flash and colour sequence to reflect the urgency of the call.

Yes, a bed or chair exit mat senses the pressure change when a patient gets up and triggers a call. The C-TEC QT633 bed exit mat and QT634 chair exit mat connect to Quantec through a remote jack socket. The QT644 floor pressure mat sits alongside a bed and triggers a Standard call on a Quantec or 800 Series system when foot pressure is detected.

It shows staff outside a bedroom or WC that a call has been made there. The C-TEC NC806C indicates Standard calls with a constant red light and Emergency calls with a pulsing red light, from dual red LEDs and a triangular diffuser, and mounts on a standard UK 25mm single gang back box. The NC806CS adds a constant or pulsing tone.
