  • 10 Things Nurse Call Nurse Call
    10 Things To Know About Nur all rse C 100% Nurse Approved 10 Things to Know About Nurse Call in 2016 Nurse call systems have evolved. Today’s nurse call systems provide front-line nurses with critical communications capabilities and a pathway to more effectively focus their precious time and energy on patient care (rather than gadgets). They have also become an invaluable reporting and analytics engine, allowing nurse leadership to access real-time reporting on workflow, improvement, rounding effectiveness, sentinel events, staffing, request detail and more. The following document was written to help build awareness of how nurse call has changed (for the better) and what you need to know before evaluating your next system. #1 Nurses Should Buy Nurse Call Believe it or not, nurses or clinical staff rarely have had an opportunity to choose their nurse call solution. Weird, right? Looking back in time, nurse call has primarily been viewed as a regulatory requirement, a check box that is specified as a low-voltage component of an engineering or construction project years in advance of its actual deployment. If nursing and clinical staff were included, it was often during implementation and training (after the decision was already made). Most often, however, nurses were just “told” to start using System-X. Fortunately, this is changing! The healthcare industry has seen big changes to its revenue model, which is forcing hospitals to look at their clinical systems differently, especially the systems that impact patient care. Because nurse call impacts workflow and efficiencies on the units, nurses are now leading the decision making process.

  • Staying Safe in the Hospital
    Staying Safe in the Hospital Bridgeport Hospital Patient Education Communication Communication is the most important aid to patient safety. If you are talking reg- ularly with the people who are caring for you, you may be able to clear up a mis- understanding before it creates a problem. For example, maybe you are allergic to something and it isn’t written down in your medical record. Feel free to ask ques- tions whenever you are not clear about something. Ask questions if you are not sure why something is being done or if you are just plain curious. You have the right to be well informed, well cared for and safe. You also have the right to ask for a second opinion or even a transfer to another hospital if you do not feel safe. • If you have questions or concerns about your care or safety, talk with your nurse, the unit’s nurse manager or your physician. If you still have concerns, call Patient Relations (384-3704). • When you go home, make sure you are clear about discharge instructions, including medications and the need for a follow-up visit. Be sure you are given a phone number to call if you have questions. • Ask for an interpreter if you are deaf or hearing impaired, or if English is not your primary language. • Don’t be afraid to challenge and be assertive. A confident caregiver will appreciate and understand your need to know. Minimizing Infections Germs and bacteria exist at home, at work, and in hospitals. All hospitals work hard to prevent you from getting an infection while you are in the hospital.

  • 4 ELV and ICT Systems
    4 ELV and ICT systems This document is intended for the Architect/Engineer (A/E) and others engaged in the design and renovation of Healthcare facilities. Where direction described in applicable codes are in conflict, the A/E shall comply with the more stringent requirement. The A/E is required to make themselves aware of all applicable codes. The document should be read in conjunction with other parts of the Health Facility Guidelines (Part A to Part F) & the typical room data sheets and typical room layout sheets. Introduction ELV and ICT systems play a key role in efficient and safe operation of any Healthcare facility. With the advent of multitude of systems and approaches and fast evolving technologies it is not prudent to mandate specific design criteria in this guideline for ELV and ICT systems. The following section provides general guidance to the designer during the design of various ELV and ICT system in healthcare facilities from a functional point of view. The LAN Infrastructure shall provide IP connectivity for several services, which may require being isolated from one another from an application point of view while sharing the same physical network. The applications include but not limited to Voice, Data, CCTV, Video, Public Address, Digital Signage, Nurse call, Central Clock, queuing systems, HIS, PACS and others. The IT infrastructure shall be flexible high capacity network capable of providing virtualized services to IP unicast and multicast applications. The IT network must be highly dependable and provide sub-second recovery in the event of any component, node, or link failure.

  • Composition of New Features Into a Wireless Nurse Call System
    Composition of New Features into a Wireless Nurse Call System Antoni Morey I Pasqual Master of Science in Communication Technology Submission date: January 2011 Supervisor: Lill Kristiansen, ITEM Co-supervisor: Hien Nam Le, ITEM Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Telematics Problem Description The use of a combined fixed and wireless nurse call system has the capability to increase nurse s awareness of the patient s needs and facilitate their work. St. Olav s hospital has such a system installed. Using former work by Professor Lill Kristiansen as a starting point several ways to improve the system s functionality have been identified. One way to implement these improvements would be to do it directly on the currently installed nurse call system (Imatis), but due to its non-open source nature some alternative means are going to be taken into consideration as well: Either reverse engineer the whole system using the Arctis modelling tool (UML based), or design a similar system from scratch using openSIPS. The objective of this thesis is to have a wireless system with a suitable level of similarity to the one currently installed at St. Olav s hospital, to which the identified improvements can be implemented. Thus enabling us to compare the improved system with the original system at St. Olav s and show the system in its intended environment. Due to the time constraints criteria based on perceived usefulness and complexity of design derived from several sources including discussion with the supervisor will be used to determine which improvements will be implemented first. Assignment given: 16.
