LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) display screen and access control host installed at the entrance and exit of the ward,

The smart medical service unit includes a HIS (Hospital Information System) gateway and a system operation and maintenance server. The HIS gateway is used to connect to the basic medical information service platform to realize data docking, and the system operation and maintenance server realizes the operation and maintenance management of the equipment;

The medical communication intercom module includes a medical host, a ward extension, and a bed extension. The medical host is set in the nurse station to answer patient calls and provide group broadcast services. The ward extension is set at the door of the ward and can be displayed at any time. Ward information: single or multiple beds are set up in the ward according to different needs and positioning, and corresponding bed extensions are configured;

The corridor LCD display screen is used to display call information, department information, date and time, slogan notices and other extended advertising information. At least one of the access control hosts is installed according to the actual situation at the entrance and exit of the ward floor to facilitate visitors and nurses. The station’s video intercom is used to confirm identity. After confirmation, the door can be unlocked remotely through the nurse station host. At the same time, the access control host is also used for the entry and exit of medical staff, allowing convenient access through multiple methods such as swiping cards/fingerprints/faces; the relationship between the entrance and exit of the ward For access control management of visiting family members and medical staff, ward access control machines can be installed according to the actual situation on site. Visiting family members can have video intercom with the nurse station through the access control machine, which facilitates medical staff to confirm the identity of the family members and remotely unlock the door. At the same time, medical staff can pass conveniently through various contact/non-contact methods such as cards/fingerprints/faces, which improves the speed of passage.

In order to further elaborate on this solution, this system is connected to a variety of certified testing instruments and equipment through the hospital bed extension.
