QUESTION: I'm looking for a wireless intercom system that will be used for an
Senior care facility. It has to contain one base and 6 wireless
stations, to be installed in 6 separate rooms, and the base has to be
able to communicate with each of the 6 units separatly, and when need
be all units at the same time.
It would be nice if the intercom would have a light that lights up for
the specific room that is calling the intercom that way, we'll know
which room is calling. Please let me know if you know of something that
meets our needs.
ANSWER: Before you commit to wireless, I have a question. Is there by any chance a drop
ceiling in the facility? If there is, you can easily run a wired system. Wired
intercoms tend to be more robust and less expensive.
I don't have personal experience with a wireless intercom system that has all of
the features you've requested, whereas there are several wired systems we carry
that would easily fill the bill. Aiphone is one of the better known makes of
commercial grade intercoms. Their NEM-10/C system is intended for use in
nursing and assisted living facilities. It can handle up to 10 substations
(patient room units), provides "all call" paging and private, individual
communications with individual rooms.
If wiring is completely out of the question you might take a look at
Rauland-Borg's offering. It's called "Responder IV Nurse Call". It claims to
do all you've asked but it also looks expensive.
