During part 4 of this blog series, we discussed access control technology. Not only are advanced access control systems important for giving seniors living in assisted, independent, and nursing homes proper medical assistance, but so are nurse call systems.
Having real time information at the disposal of the staff, this technology is designed to meet the needs and expectations of the residents while reducing response times. Below are two reasons nurse call systems matter most:

According to a New York Times Article called Tech for a New Age, innovative technology helps seniors live longer using medicine, public health, and technology. More and more seniors are receiving care in their homes by caregivers and nurses, waiting several years to move into senior living facilities.
Whether nurse call systems are being used from the home or from the senior living home, this technology has brought our senior population to the next level.
