Finding a doctor in a large hospital should not take ten minutes. Here is how paging works.
Key takeaways
- Page a person
- Page a zone
- Emergency announcements
- Pagers or handsets
01The problem
A doctor called urgently may be on any floor. Paging by PA, pagers or handsets gets the message to the right person fast. Emergency codes can be announced to the right zones without alarming the whole hospital.
02How it works
03What to check before you buy

|---|---|

| Zones | Floors and wings separately |
| Codes | Agreed wording |

| Your own requirements | Confirm them with your regulator and advisers |
