New Jeron Provider 790 One-Touch IP Intercom Feature Accelerates Efficiency

Jeron Electronic Systems, Inc, announces an optional IP intercom feature for its Provider 790 nurse call system that delivers two-way hands-free communication for critical care and clinical settings.



    CHICAGO, IL, July 09, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Today, Myles Cochran, Marketing Director at Jeron Electronic Systems, Inc. announced the Touchscreen IP Intercom features supporting the multi-tasking communication requirements of acute care and clinical environments. The IP Intercom Staff Terminal is the most recent in a series of innovative options for Provider 790 nurse call, a VoIP-based platform designed to improve communication, patient satisfaction and workflow processes in acute care settings.

"We recognized a need for streamlined staff to staff communication within and across departments - within the ED, a surgical suite, med/surg units, clinic or even across a medical campus", said Cochran. "and every second counts in many of these settings. The one-touch terminal allows staff to connect - instantly - with other Nurse Consoles and Staff Terminals throughout the facility and access, with the press of a single button, a broad spectrum of Provider 790's features and advantages."

An important benefit of the IP Intercom Terminal is its ability to keep staff focused and engaged in the patient task at hand. "We all know how busy caregivers and staff are masters of multi-tasking," stated Cochran. "A recent study indicated that hospital nurses multi-task 1/3 of their work day." The increased risk of errors demands strategies that control interruptions and the resulting time away from patients. "The IP Intercom Terminal allows staff to remain with patients while instantly accessing and relaying critical information to other team members. It's a practical tool that lets staff selectively reduce the unproductive phone calls and overhead pages that impact continuity of care."

The new IP Intercom functionality is part of the Provider 790 Staff Terminal which features:

- Touchscreen operation with up to 60 customizable color-coded buttons for intercom, call placement, and workflow
- Convenient wall-mount design for already congested staff areas
- Crystal clear VoIP full duplex audio communications
- Hands-free answering, ideal for sterile applications
- Four levels of caregiver-selected privacy for inbound intercom calls: Hands-Free Answer, Acknowledge to Answer, Full Privacy and Do Not Disturb
- Resides on the Provider 790 nurse call network - separate from the facility's LAN and designed for 24/7 operation

The addition of IP Intercom adds to the flexibility of the Touchscreen Staff terminal including:

- Team-based patient rounding and self-reminders for consistent visits to patients
- One-touch to alert staff and caregivers to active workflows via a pocket page message or text message to their in-house wireless or SIP phone
- Staff log-in for full Nurse Console capability displaying and answering patient calls
- Staff locate by name and level, with single-press communication to the intercom station where the specific staff member is located
