Hot Prospect - Quantec Call System installed at
prestigious new medical facility
C-TEC’s cost-effective and versatile addressable call system,
Quantec, has been installed at a new state-of-the-art £7.5 million
health facility in Great Malvern, Worcestershire.
With 24 consulting rooms, Prospect View Medical Centre provides GP
services for 19,000 patients and community health services for the
whole of Malvern, which has a population of around 36,000. The building
houses a range of community staff including district nurses, health
visitors for children and the elderly, school nurses and occupational
therapists.
Designed to make premises safe and secure, Quantec is a vital piece
of life safety equipment which ensures essential communication for
patients and staff at the centre in emergency situations.
Says Brian
Kirkland of Contract Distributors, the company which specified the
system: “Quantec is ideal for medical facilities as it is very
easy-to-use, reliable and helps to save staff time, minimise disturbance
and improve the quality of patient care.”Each consultation room
is equipped with a call point, special call lead and overdoor light,
enabling the occupant to raise an alarm should an emergency situation
arise.
Says David Jago, the Centre’s Manager: ”As a medical facility
providing primary healthcare, GP and dentistry services, Quantec is
an essential part of our infrastructure. The system is invaluable as
it provides staff and patients with the reassurance that, if there
is an emergency, it will be responded to quickly. Quantec enables us
to fully discharge our duty of care to the people accessing our facilities”.
New innovations recently added to the Quantec range include a large
and easy to read LED corridor display and a revolutionary data management
software package (Quantec Surveyor) which helps building managers
evaluate staff performance, review patient demands and determine optimum
labour
levels/shift
patterns.
