Vision Link Wireless Nurse Call System Now Listed to UL1069 Edition 7 "Hospital Signaling and Nurse Call Equipment"
Vision Link is One of the Very Few Wireless Systems to Meet This Standard
Hayden, Idaho (October XX, 2012) – Systems Technologies, a leading manufacturer of wireless nurse call and emergency response systems since 1994, has announced that their flagship product, the Vision Link Wireless Nurse Call System, has now been fully tested and listed to the new Edition 7 standard for UL1069 Hospital Signaling and Nurse Call Equipment. Vision Link was formerly listed under Edition 6. In states that now require Edition 7 Vision Link can be installed in all care levels including skilled and acute. This makes Vision Link ideal in Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC) that offer independent living as well as assisted living and skilled care. Staff can use one system throughout to eliminate learning curves and nursing errors.
Vision Link combines a multitude of functionality designed and engineered to provide patient focused care along with safety and security for residents and staff alike. Each unit, floor or building can have a console that displays calls from just that area. The server handles all staff notification and allows management to enter programming that automatically uploads to each unit console. Management can additionally view all alarm events real time, obtain call analysis reports, change staff notification assignments and receive notification of escalated or unanswered calls, whether on site or off-site. The system offers eight types of alarm notification including pager, cell phone, wireless phone, email, two-way radio, central station and more.

Hospitals, Courthouses, Airports, Hospitals - Anywhere Anyone Needs to Press a Button For Help
Hayden, Idaho (November 21, 2012) - Systems Technologies' Vision Pro is a wireless emergency call system designed to provide prompt, accurate notification and messaging services in critical situations. Applicable settings for these services include private residences, gated communities, office complexes, outpatient hospitals, psychiatric clinics, schools and college campuses, airports, convalescent centers, retiree apartment complexes and assisted living facilities. Depending on the setting, the Vision Pro system can deliver a range of life-saving information to centralized computer consoles or directly to individual staff members. Facilities that use the system can typically reduce their costs in several different ways.
In hospitals and similar settings, Vision Pro can act as a nurse call system and gives nurses and other important personnel a way to monitor and respond to emergencies throughout a facility. In addition to life-saving situations directly related to individual patient welfare, nurse call systems allow staff to track the status of stairwell doors, exit doors, smoke detectors and other vital systems or locations. Each individual setup can be customized to the needs of the facility in question. In addition to computer consoles, staff members can receive wireless alerts from the system on devices that include cell phones, two-way radios, personal pagers, PDAs, wireless telephones and wireless readerboards. If desired, facility managers can also use the system to track staff members.
In addition to its ability to issue a nurse call in a medical setting, Vision Pro can be used to issue an emergency call in a wide variety of non-medical settings. In these settings, as in medical environments, the system can monitor motion or glass breakage in sensitive areas, detect smoke, monitor doors and monitor the on/off status of critical equipment. The system can also issue emergency alerts to Homeland Security or other important outside agencies.
Not all facilities have the same needs when it comes to relaying emergency information. Some organizations need nothing more than a simple pager system that reaches a small number of employees, while other organizations need to reach hundreds of employees, or send emergency messages only to certain locations or personnel. Vision Pro is completely scalable to these varying needs, and as a result, companies that use the system can choose a setup that meets their current needs, rather than choosing a setup that they will eventually grow into over time. This flexibility can provide significant short-term cost savings, and also allows companies to upgrade as needed while still keeping their costs at a minimum.
When facilities that use an emergency call system expand, they typically also need to expand their current system to new areas, including entirely new buildings or new wings in existing buildings. If the facility uses a wired system to carry its emergency signals, administrators will inevitably incur considerable expense in order to install the required wires, as well as the conduit needed to carry and protect these wires. Vision Pro, however, is a wireless system that uses modern 900 MHz technology capable of broadcasting a signal over an area roughly equivalent to 100 acres. Administrators who use this system can freely expand within this area while avoiding the expenses associated with wired solutions. In this way, they can significantly reduce the overall cost of organizational expansion.

About Systems Technologies: Since 1994 Systems Technologies has been an industry leader in the design and manufacture of wireless nurse call and emergency call systems for healthcare and emergency services and the first ever to obtain a UL1069 listing for “Hospital Signaling and Nurse Call Equipment Most nurses attacked or faced aggressive patients on the job Hayden, Idaho (March XX, 2014) In a survey of 4,900 nurses and caregivers a worrying insight into the extent of workplace violence has emerged. The survey found that almost 70 per cent of respondents had experienced violence or aggression in the past year. Patients were the source of 40 per cent of cases of violence and aggression, with another 40 per cent perpetrated by patients’ friends and relatives. About 32 per cent of respondents said they had received no training in managing violence and aggression; and workplace stress resulted in 30 per cent of respondents taking days off work . The recommendations to reduce workplace violence for nursing staff included better security, improved workplace design and identification of patients of risk to staff. The statistics are even worse for workers in the mental health field. The VisionPro Wireless Emergency Call System is specifically designed to increase staff safety and reduce the workplace violence by providing a personal panic button that each staff member can wear and press if feeling threatened and that automatically transmits a fall alarm if they go down. This immediately notifies on site security including name and location so that help can be immediately dispatched. If the alarm is not canceled at the originating device within the number of minutes selected. the alarm event can send mass notification and/or notify the local 911 center. Alarm events can notify computer workstations, iPads, iPods, pocket pagers, cell phones, two way radios, central monitoring stations and more. In addition to improved staff safety, VisionPro offers multi-button stations, patient stations and emergency pull stations for infusion, clinic and emergency areas. Other options include vandal resistant emergency stations, corridor and zone LED lights, motion detectors and door/window transmitters for med rooms, storage rooms or other areas where security should be notified if after hours entry is detected.
