  • Hospital communication systems designed to page, summon, or locate staff members via radiated electromagnetic (i.e., wireless) signals. These systems typically consist of a central transmission unit including a switching device that allows communication with each user, power supplies, electromagnetic (e.g., radiofrequency, microwave) signal transmission, and appropriate antennas and portable reception devices (i.e., pagers, badges) that are carried by members of the hospital staff and that attract their attention with an audible, tactile, or visual signal. Hospital paging communication systems may be used to deliver a brief message to the individuals carrying receivers; the systems include capability for accurate and secure emergency paging and/or confidential messaging to staff members.
