The SEEK-AID Radio Nurse Call System
comprises of Panels (receivers) and Call Units (transmitters).
The panels come with their own internal aerials, eliminating the need for wiring of an external aerial. This also makes it easier for the movement of Display Panels if needed.
When a SEEK-AID transmitter is
activated, a call signal is carried by radio to the panels. Both the unit
number and the cause of the alarm, i.e. Standard, Assistance or Emergency
are displayed on the panel. At the same time, the sounder is triggered,
emitting one of three distinct tones to indicate the urgency of the call.
This can be regulated so as not to disturb residents, particularly at night,
as the volume can be set depending on the time and location, and increases
automatically to draw the attention of the staff until the call is answered.
Calls can only be cancelled by
attending the room from which it originated. This is a requirement of the
various Health Authorities and Social Service Departments. All calls made
will be held within the systems memory until cancelled, with the most urgent
of these taking priority. |
