Every system in a ward, from Wi-Fi to nurse call, rides on cabling. Here is how to plan it once and use it for years.
Key takeaways
- Cable once
- Spare capacity
- Labelled
- Tidy cabinets
01The problem
Nurse call, cameras, access doors, Wi-Fi and phones all need cable. A ward cabled once, neatly and with spare capacity, saves repeated disruption. Labelled cables and a tidy cabinet also make faults easy to find.
