TekTone products embrace a wide range of markets. With the Tek-CARE platform, facilities around the world have the ability to create customized systems to meet their specific needs, as well as integrate with other communication and life safety devices. Different levels of care require different equipment, so TekTone provides a one-stop shop for every facility. From nurse call to wander management, TekTone offers a solution for you.

Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASC), Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC)/Life Plan, Skilled Nursing, Assisted/Independent Living, hospitals and cancer centers are all markets currently served by TekTone products. The platform also provides unique features for prison and psychiatric facilities. Depending on the environment, regulations and requirements can alter what systems are necessary and what can be used. TekTone nurse call systems are UL® listed, ensuring the safety of residents and staff members alike. Tek-CARE nurse call systems can also be customized to fit any size, from small care homes to large community hospitals.

Along with Tek-CARE systems, TekTone also provides a unique staff approach to service specific markets, such as national accounts.

AMBULATORY SURGERY CENTERS

Ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) are health care facilities that offer patients the convenience of having surgeries and procedures performed safely outside the hospital setting. This trend in healthcare is a growing new market and TekTone has designed our systems to offer valuable nurse and emergency call capabilities to ASC patients.

CONTINUING CARE RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES / LIFE PLAN

Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC), also known as Life Plan Communities, are designed for seniors who are currently living independently, but want the safety and security of being cared for as they age without having to relocate…

SKILLED NURSING

Skilled nursing facilities provide a place of residence for those who require continuous nursing attention. Services available include assistance of nurses, nursing aides and assistants; physical, occupational and speech therapists; social workers, recreational assistants; and living space.

ASSISTED / INDEPENDENT LIVING

Assisted living / independent living facilities usually have a campus-wide call system so a resident can notify caregivers by initiating a call from a personal pendant or emergency button press/pull. 

HOSPITALS & CANCER CENTERS

Nurse call systems for hospitals, microhospitals and cancer centers must offer more than the ability for a patient to call for a nurse. These systems are now about total solutions to improving facility performance.

PSYCHIATRIC & BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FACILITIES

ASC

Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC), also known as Life Plan Communities, are designed for seniors who are currently living independently, but want the safety and security of being cared for as they age without having to relocate. As a resident’s health declines, he or she may transition from an independent living residence to assisted living, to an intermediate or skilled nursing facility—all on one campus. TekTone offers systems specialized in adapting to the changing needs of CCRCs, while keeping resident’s safety and security a top priority.

CCRC

A skilled nursing facility (nursing home, convalescent home, care home or rest home) provides a place of residence for those who require continuous nursing attention. Services available in skilled nursing facilities include assistance of nurses, nursing aides and assistants; physical, occupational and speech therapists; social workers, recreational assistants; and living space. In some instances, residents may reside in skilled nursing facilities to receive rehabilitation or other therapy following an illness or accident.

SKILLED NURSING

Assisted living / independent living facilities usually have a campus-wide call system so a resident can notify caregivers by initiating a call from a personal pendant or emergency button press/pull. The systems specified for these types of facilities are usually referred to as emergency call systems or personal emergency response systems. Call system requirements in assisted/independent living vary, but may be mandatory in some states. Assisted living facilities may prefer a combination of Tek-CARE wireless and wired technology, with pull-cord stations, call buttons and wireless pendants to ensure staff members are notified efficiently and quickly.

ASSISTED LIVING

Nurse call systems for hospitals, microhospitals and cancer centers must offer more than the ability for a patient to call for a nurse. These systems are now about total solutions to improving facility performance. Performance is identified as improving efficiency in terms of facility goals (rounding, reducing time to answer calls, tracking staff performance using metrics), improving staff satisfaction, and improving patient satisfaction.

HOSPITAL INFO

Nurse call systems in high security facilities, such as psychiatric and behavioral health facilities, require the implementation of advanced features to protect against vandalism and to provide accurate monitoring and reporting options.

PSYCHIATRIC & BEHAVIORAL
