Vocera or Alternative?

Specialties Ob/Gyn

What do you all use for internal communication in your units? Do you use Vocera? Do you like it? I'm most interested in hearing what alternatives are being used out there.

We have Vocera, but it doesn't work well most of the time...

Thanks!

I absolutley hate the vocera. I can never get a hold of anyone. Ever. They don't understand me, and I hold it away from my face just like they say!

Most of these comments seem to blame the symptom rather than the disease. Seems like addressing the wireless network would improve everyone's life by letting Vocera function like it was intended.

We also use ASCOM. The call lights go to the phones as well if the patient decides to call us on that rather than call us directly. I did a rotation at a hospital that used Vocera and it seemed like a royal pain. Glad we don't use it!

We use ascom too. I haven't had any issues with it.
