Hospitals are akin to a very complex organism. As such, it is important that the communication system and the communication devices in place are appropriate for the dynamic needs of a hospital or other healthcare setting. Communication between staff is of the utmost importance in such a multifaceted environment where all departments critically rely on one another for services. JTECH’s SmartAlert® messaging system is a flexible communication solution ideally suited for the array of regular and routine communications found in these busy healthcare settings. Part of the challenge in a healthcare setting, as with many other complex settings, is communicating with the right people at the right time. It’s very important that maintenance, nursing, administration and other auxiliary personnel are immediately available to meet unplanned needs. Healthcare professionals know that patient needs don’t typically arise on schedule, which is why immediate communication at all times is imperative.

JTECH’s StaffComm™ microtransmitters make it easy to discreetly, yet instantly, relay a message to a specific person or a specific group of staff members. In addition, with the ability to preprogram specific commonly used messages, the time required to send a message is reduced to but a moment to simply press a button. JTECH’s communication systems are efficiency-focused and easy to use. StaffComm devises allow interdependent departments to clearly express patient and staff needs immediately. For example, maintenance is often needed by every department and often in specific locations at some point, and often when they are, it’s an emergency of sorts where immediacy is paramount. StaffComm microtransmitters result in maintenance staff always being directed to the right location immediately when required. The same can be said about administration. Typically, the situation warrants immediate attention, which is why StaffComm is ideal for bringing together nursing and management. While patients will not likely be aware that silent pagers are even in use given the discreet nature of the devices, they will feel the difference of increased patient care and attentiveness to needs.
