Ascom Unveils Nurse Call Innovations

Ascom, which provides wireless healthcare ICT solutions and mobile workflow solutions, introduced a new version of its ‘Telligence’ nurse call solution at Arab Health 2017, the largest healthcare exhibition in the Middle East.

Ascom provides mission-critical, real-time solutions for highly mobile, ad hoc, and time-sensitive environments. Its integration and mobilization solutions provide smooth, complete and efficient workflows for the healthcare sector among others.

“The Ascom Telligence system has already transformed people’s ideas of what a nurse call system can deliver,” said David Foth, Ascom’s Global Product Manager for Patient Systems. “The latest version adds even more enhancements to improve workflow efficiency and streamline communication and collaboration between care teams and patients. For example, the new Telligence makes it easier for the care team to communicate about patient service requests, which means response times to patients can be improved. The new capabilities provide much more visibility to the most common types of requests that are received from patients. These can be utilized to aid the hospital in making workflow improvements and coordinating the proper staffing levels.”

In addition to the new Telligence, Ascom also showcased new handsets, as well as its Ascom Myco mobile device – an Android-based handset specifically designed for healthcare and other professional environments – at the four-day event held from January 30 to February 2, 2017, at the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
