Since the input from the nurse call master unit 7 is the same as the conventional one, the description is omitted, and here, the flow of input from the bedside monitor 3 will be described.

First, the bedside monitor 3 is shifted to the voice input mode by a predetermined operation of the bedside monitor 3. When the mode shifts to the voice input mode, the bedside monitor 3 transmits a voice input mode shift signal to the controller 8, the voice analysis unit 87 of the controller 8 becomes active, and the voice input from the bedside monitor 3 becomes active. Are all transmitted to the controller 8 and the voice is analyzed.

In this state, the registered predetermined word is input by voice. For example, when the word "nursing record" is registered as the input start word of the nursing record, the nurse inputs this word by voice from the microphone 34 of the bedside monitor 3, and the voice analysis unit 87 inputs this voice. Recognize and shift to the nursing record input mode. Then, communication is started between the nurse call server 13 and the controller 8 under the control of the controller CPU 85, and the nursing record can be input to the nurse call server 13 by voice.

The nurse can recognize that the transition to the nursing record input mode has been performed on the display of the bedside monitor 3, and receives the transition operation to start voice input. If the voice emitted toward the bedside monitor 3 in the nursing record input mode contains, for example, the words "blood pressure XX, pulse XX", the voice analysis unit 87 recognizes it and the nurse call server 13 "Blood pressure XX, pulse XX" is recorded in the nursing record storage unit 93 of the above and is stored as a nursing record.
