Nursery
Protecting Your Smallest Patients
Your nursery needs to be your most secure area. Responder systems integrates with your existing systems to accomplish this. If the unit is locked down with a swipe card door access security system, we have a unique application. When a card carrying individual swipes in for access, we can trigger visual contact with the nurses station via a CCTV connection. This allows staff to see who is coming into the department without having line of sight to the doors. This can alternatively be used for visitors to the unit that don't have swipe card access. A call button can be installed at the doors for visitors to 'ring'. This willl initiate a call at the nursing station and activate the monitor so you can see who is requesting access and if they are accompanied.
The Responder systems can also integrate with your infant abduction systems. When you band the infant with a transmitter and if the band is cut or taken from the unit/building an alarm wil be sounded. This can indicate a code pink alarm and indicate which door the alarm was originated at. This can notify your security staff, lock down the unit/doors, and sound an audible alarm overhead. Keep in mind, because we customize to your process, we can have this notification route as you wish it.
Improving Communications Between the LDRP and the Nursery and Beyond
With our unique process handling, the Responder systems can alert your Nursery of specific requests. For example, if a mother wants her child brought to the room, this request can go directly to the Nursery or nursery staff indicating this.
We can also integration with your vital monitoring systems. If a monitor alarms, we can route this directly to the specific caregiver caring for that infant and/or to the nursing station.
We can also set reminders to your staff for routine tasks. One such task is reminding your staff to conduct an infant count. We can notify on regular intervals to wireless devices and/or to the nurses station to start the count.
Get Help When and Where Your Staff Needs It
When there is an alarm in the nursery, such as Infant Emergency or Medical Emergency, your staff may require assistance. The Responder system can integrate with monitors located throughout the unit or even in other units, such as L&D. This can provide an alternative means of notification of certain types of calls that you may want to handle differently.
