IHEEM VIPs talk about trends for the future of nurse call.

Over 360 hand picked VIPs came to relax, get free drinks and chill out areas and to discuss future nurse call system projects.

The trends we picked up at the event included particular interest in hospital alert systems and mobile applications for nurse communications as well as a commitment to using wired systems for reliability and ensuring that all systems meet the strict HTM compliance regulations. Furthermore, IHEEM members discussed the need to show successful implementation of IP nurse call citing Wandsworth’s unique previous success in doing this at both the Walton Centre Trust and South Tyneside Hospital.
