Courtney-Thorne has developed its first wireless nurse call system designed specifically for hospital environments, with the launch of the new ALTRA wireless nurse call range.
The company said: “Developed specifically to comply with the Department of Health HTM 08-03 bedhead services guidelines, the new ALTRA product offers excellent, reliable functionality as a nurse call range, and maximises the potential of wireless technology to ensure that it captures useful call data and response times for management analysis.”
A modular system that requires no wiring, and is said to offer ‘excellent future-proofing’ thanks to its ease of reconfiguration, the ALTRA wireless nurse call range uses a dedicated, ‘ultra-reliable’ 869.2 MHz wavelength, and signals with CRC error checking call protection to eliminate the risk of interference.
John Polhill, national sales manager, said: “As a market-leader in wireless nurse call systems we have established a strong reputation for the reliability, practicality, and operational benefits of wireless technology over the past few years. The ALTRA range takes that reputation a step further, setting a new benchmark for wireless nurse call systems, and giving hospitals complete confidence that they can make considerable financial savings while remaining HTM 08-03 compliant.”
