What is this category?
This category includes corded nurse call buttons, pendant cords, adapters, extension leads, and related accessories for connecting to nurse call systems. These products provide a simple way for users to call for help by activating their facility’s existing nurse call infrastructure. Safe-Life supplies components compatible with major Australian nurse call systems, along with replacements and accessories for both home care and facility environments.
How do these products work?
- The cord or button connects to a nurse call point using the correct plug type, usually 6.3 mm or RJ-series connectors.
- When the user presses the button or activates a pressure pad cord, the signal is sent to the nurse call system.
- The system triggers an alert at a staff station, pager, or monitoring device.
- Adapters allow multiple devices or compatible accessories to plug into a single call point.
- Many corded buttons use silicone housings or sealed switches for durability and cleaning.
Who are these products for?
- People needing a simple bedside call button at home.
- Aged care facilities requiring replacement cords or adapters.
- Hospitals updating worn nurse call leads.
- Carers supporting someone with limited mobility.
- Home care providers who need compatible cords for existing call points or home care monitoring accessories.
