Rutland Memorial Hospital £100k Nurse Call System Installation

EP Consulting has successfully completed a £100k project at Rutland Memorial Hospital in Oakham, where we installed an upgraded nurse call system and bedhead trunking across ten ward rooms and ancillary areas. This project, undertaken for Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust, showcases our expertise in healthcare technology upgrades, aimed at enhancing patient care and staff efficiency.

Scope of Work

Our team conducted thorough feasibility studies and created an electrical design to ensure seamless integration of the new nurse call system. Collaborating closely with Focus Consultants, we customised the installation to meet the specific needs of the hospital. This enhancement in communication and safety throughout the facility marks a significant improvement in healthcare technology.

Challenges and Solutions

The 12-week project was executed within an operational hospital, necessitating careful planning to avoid disrupting patient care. Our engineers developed a phased installation approach to minimise downtime and worked in close coordination with hospital staff for smooth implementation. We addressed both spatial and technical challenges with flexible design solutions, achieving both immediate and long-term operational goals.

Results and Impact

The newly installed nurse call system together with our dedication to precision and quality ensures that Rutland Memorial Hospital is now better equipped to deliver healthcare services to their patients.
