Vocera Smartbadge
Enhanced hands-free communication
Simplify hospital communication and workflow to help improve staff safety and impact on patient care.
Turn complexity into simplicity
Use the natural, intuitive way to communicate in healthcare and simplify hospital communication and collaboration.
Streamline hospital communications
Care teams face mounting challenges daily and need a solution that streamlines communication, minimises interruption fatigue and safeguards staff - without comprimising patient care.
The Smartbadge can help by:
- making it easy for people to find each other and communicate quickly
- enabling people to communicate safely and effectively during hands-on patient care workflows
- assisting workers to reach help quickly in an emergency
Purpose-built for patient care
- Communicate intuitively: Make, receive, transfer and forward calls using a natural, voice-driven experience. Say, “OK Vocera” to wake up the device and start communicating.
- Help improve staff safety: Communicate safely, even under restrictive personal protective equipment (PPE), to help reduce the spread of infection. In an emergency, activate the dedicated panic button to discreetly open a communication channel to the response team.
- Help reduce interruption fatigue and stay focused on critical patient care: Set your device to do-not-disturb mode and accept or decline notifications. Avoid communication dead ends with call escalation to the next available person or team.
- Easily reach the right person or team: Reach contacts by saying their name, role, group or extension. Page a user or group. Call people inside or outside your health system.
- Triage events quickly: Determine the urgency of events via notifications with detailed context on the Smartbadge.
- Leverage smartphone functionality: Get smartphone usability and hands-free mobility with the Smartbadge’s ample touchscreen.
