# SIP Phone System for Hospitals and Clinics in Kenya

A SIP phone system carries voice over the hospital's network, so every desk, ward and handset joins one phone system that can route, group and forward calls.

If your phone system needs a specialist for every change, it is not your phone system.

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- A switchboard few can change
- Direct lines nobody remembers
- Personal mobiles doing the job

### If you wait

- Staff using personal mobiles with no record or cover
- Every change waiting for a specialist

### What you get

- One phone system for reception, wards and handsets
- Shared numbers so whoever is on duty answers
- Changes made in minutes

## Key takeaways

- A switchboard few can change
- Direct lines nobody remembers
- Personal mobiles doing the job
- Relatives bounced between desks

## The moment that matters

Many hospitals run three phone worlds at once: a switchboard nobody fully understands, a handful of direct lines and the personal mobiles that staff use because the others are too hard. A patient's relative rings the front desk and is passed along, put on hold, cut off. The cause is rarely the staff. It is a phone system that was never designed around how a hospital actually works.

## What waiting really takes

**A switchboard few can change**: Every change needs a specialist.

**Direct lines nobody remembers**: Numbers pass by word of mouth.

**Personal mobiles doing the job**: No record, no cover when someone is off.

**Relatives bounced between desks**: A poor first experience of your hospital.

## Picture the day after

Now picture one phone system. Reception answers and sends the call to the ward with a single press. A ward has a shared number, so whoever is on duty answers. A sister on rounds carries her extension on a handset. Changes, a new ward, a new number, are made in minutes on screen, not after a call-out. The phone stops being the thing everyone works around.

## How a call travels

How a call travels

A caller dials the hospitalOr a staff member dials an extension

The phone system decidesBy time of day, ward, or who is on duty

The right desk or handset ringsOr a group, in order

If unansweredThe call moves on to the next person

The call is answeredAnd the call is logged where the system keeps records

## What to check before you buy

| Check | Why it matters |
| --- | --- |
| Number of extensions | Desks, wards, handsets and doors, with room to grow |
| Call groups and forwarding | By ward, shift and role |
| Network readiness | Cable, switches and power for phones |
| Line to the outside | How calls arrive from the public network |
| Backup power | The core stays up in a power cut |
| Support | Who repairs it, and how fast |

## How we set it up

1. **Walk the hospital**: We note every ward, desk, door and the routes staff walk to talk to each other.
2. **Draw the call plan**: Who rings whom, which desks share a number and where calls go if unanswered.
3. **Cable and power**: Network cable to every device, with power over the cable where the model supports it, and backup power for the core.
4. **Fit and configure**: Intercoms, phones and handsets installed, named and set up.
5. **Test every point**: A call from every device to every group, including after-hours routing.
6. **Train each shift**: A short session at shift change, then a check after two weeks.

Often not. We can bring existing lines in alongside the new system.
