Vocera Communications
Vocera©: Hands-free Voice Communication
Hospitals are complex environments with diverse needs. For many organizations, it makes sense to have a unified wireless infrastructure with different types of voice communication devices based on user types and the environment.
Vocera is the right solution when:
- Instant communication is paramount
- Workflow changes are a key motivator for a revolutionary technology implementation rather than a simple telephone replacement
- Instant voice is the primary communication need
- Data needs are non-existent or for short text messaging only, such as alarms
- Hands-free communication is vital
- The convenience of call by role (e.g. charge nurse) when names or extensions are not easily available
- Instant broadcasting to a specified group is required (e.g. trauma team)
Features
- Easy-to-use, unobtrusive communication devices operate virtually hands-free
- Reliable, standards-based platform operates with existing monitoring and communications systems
- Intuitive, voice-driven calling eliminates the need for daily call sheets and other directory services
- Telephone functions allow caregivers the ability to stay patient-side during calls to and from in-house extensions and outside numbers
- Call by group function improves workflow by allowing caregivers immediate access to others without having to remember or look up phone numbers
