If you manage a facility that specializes in in-patient or senior care, an emergency call (eCall) system can provide additional safety and security for your patients and residents, as well as a peace of mind for their caregivers. eCall systems come in many forms, such as a wearable pendant or a wall-mount pull cord. They are designed to provide prompt two-way communication between patients and medical staff, which helps reduce risk, improve care and increase staff efficiency. TechneTronics is a trusted Ecall  installer in the Baltimore area, serving Maryland, DC, Northern Virginia, and Southern Pennsylvania.

eCall System Features & Benefits

Depending on the specific eCall system you choose, it may come with some or all of the following features and benefits.

• Immediate notification of an alert initiated by a patient.
• Ability to locate the patient who is requesting assistance.
• Call back feature allows staff to follow up on a new alert from a portable phone.
• Remote monitoring of vital signs.
• Daily monitoring of specific symptoms through an automated call survey.
• Programmable schedule of the staff members who receive alerts depending on the day of the week and work shifts.
• Recording and archiving of alert events and system use.

Besides the fast response during an emergency, eCall systems are also useful for a variety of non-emergency situations. An eCall system can be used to locate a patient, send reminders to take medication or for fast communication between different staff members. Wireless eCall systems are particularly flexible and can often be integrated with existing nurse call stations. Nursing homes and senior living communities are the two major facilities that can benefit from eCall systems.
