Wireless Voice Technology Used at Rush North Shore Medical Center

A wireless voice technology system is just one of the ways, Rush North Shore Medical Center is improving care and satisfaction to its patients by enhancing communication between patients and medical staff that dramatically reduces response time. Wireless voice technology enables staff to instantly communicate hands free over a lightweight, wearable communication badge. Instead of responding to pagers or traditional phones, a clinician uses the communication badge with simple voice commands such as “Call Dr. Smith” or “Call pharmacy.”

 

This voice-controlled wireless communication system not only lets hospital staff communicate instantaneously on campus, but can connect to and from traditional phone and cellular networks. Its database technology with voice recognition can connect medical staff throughout the organization, essential when speed is critical.

A three way calling option provides patients the benefit of conducting conversations bedside with their doctors and conferencing a family member that might be at work or even in a different state.
