CHICAGO - April 30, 2015 - PRLog -- Building upon the ultra-reliable, flexible, and cost-effective Provider 680 nurse call platform, Jeron Electronic Systems is excited to announce a major advance in nurse call connectivity with the new Provider 680 Gateway. The new Gateway adds advanced technology to the Provider 680 platform including Voice over IP audio, Ethernet connectivity, and flexible LAN-based applications at a price-point not available on comparable systems.

Utilizing standard Ethernet networking, multiple nursing units of Provider 680 nurse call can be interconnected over an Underwriter’s Laboratories UL1069 (Hospital Signaling and Nurse Call Equipment) listed nurse call network. The Ethernet network provides digital Voice over IP audio between areas so communication between patient and staff is always crystal clear. The simple networking of nurse call among units makes the Provider 680 very scalable and readily supports features such as day/night transfer between nursing units and centralized patient call answering.

Glenn McMinn, owner of Jeron’s premier Distributor, Symtech Solutions of Ivyland, Pennsylvania states, “What’s exciting about the Provider 680 Gateway is that it works with existing Provider 680 systems. We can go back to our existing customers and offer new networking and integration options at the fraction of the cost of a new nurse call system. These new networking options extend the life of existing nurse call systems for a good ten years which saves our customers a lot.”

Connecting Provider 680 to the facility’s LAN brings a whole level of advanced options to improve the patient and caregiver experience including:

Call Activity and Reporting – generate reports to spot trends in staff response times to patient calls and take corrective action before patient satisfaction is affected

Wireless SIP Phone Integration – route patient calls directly to their assigned caregiver; keeping staff mobile and in direct communication with their patients

LAN-Based Staff to Patient Assignments – from any networked computer, nursing managers can manage staff to patient assignments. Caregiver’s are assigned as teams so if one is busy a call automatically route’s to the next caregiver’s wireless device

Team Alerts – urgent calls, such as code blue, bed exit, and staff emergency can route to multiple caregiver’s wireless devices (SIP phones and pocket pagers) to speed response

Barcode On/Off Duty and Break – saving time and eliminating errors, caregivers simply scan themselves on/off duty, on break, or their assigned wireless device for the shift. While a caregiver is on break their calls automatically route to the next person on their team

Real-Time Locating – Provider 680 integrates with the most popular real-time locating systems on the market supporting automatic staff registration in and out of patient rooms and staff locating from any nurse console

Call Activity Display – from any networked computer, managers can monitor call activity including a floor map view of calls and staff presence

Automated Overhead Paging – integration with the facility’s public address system lets Provider 680 broadcast announcement alerts for urgent calls to caregiver teams

The flexibility and scalability of Provider 680 lets facilities choose any combination of the network-based features that makes sense for them. It also lets them easily add options in the future without replacing what they’ve already purchased.
