# IP Intercom for Wards and Nurses' Stations in Kenya

An IP intercom at the nurses' station lets staff speak to other wards, the pharmacy and theatre without leaving the ward, and keeps the station the calm centre of the unit.

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

**In this guide you will see:**

- Walking to ask

## Key takeaways

- Walking to ask
- Messages by memory
- A station that is not the centre
- A tired team

## The moment that matters

Think about a nurse's night. She has ten patients. One needs a drip checked, one is asking for a relative, one is due a dose that pharmacy has not sent. To find out about the dose she has to leave the ward, walk to the pharmacy and walk back, and in that time the drip finishes and the relative arrives. She is not slow. She is one person doing the work of a switchboard and a messenger on top of nursing.

## What waiting really takes

**Walking to ask**: Every question is a trip.

**Messages by memory**: Notes on paper, notes on hands.

**A station that is not the centre**: Information arrives by foot.

**A tired team**: Small interruptions add up to a hard night.

## Picture the day after

Give that nurse an intercom at the station. She presses for pharmacy, asks, and gets the answer while she writes. She presses for the ward below, confirms a bed. The relative is met at the door by the receptionist who rang through. She stays with her patients and the station finally behaves like the centre of the ward, because everything comes to it, by voice, instead of requiring her to go and find it.

## What to check before you buy

| Check | Why it matters |
| --- | --- |
| Keys and names | Which departments sit on which keys |
| Hands-free | A speaker and microphone that work in a busy ward |
| Noise | Good audio in a noisy ward |
| Privacy | Calls not heard by other patients |
| 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.

## What we supply

We design, supply and install IP intercoms, SIP desk phones, wireless handsets, ceiling speakers and the network behind them for hospitals, clinics and care homes. We stock Fanvil IP phones and intercoms and can quote other brands where they fit your site better. Send us a plan or a photo of your nurses' station and we reply with a written quote.

## Frequently asked questions

Will it add noise to the ward?
