Every single second, Ascom systems generate 1.3 million data points. We are here to turn these into useful and actionable information for people in the toughest operational environments – and assist them to make the best possible decisions.

With solutions for Clinical Surveillance, Rapid response, Alarm Management, Smart Nurse call systems, Mobile Devices, Staff Safety and Activity monitoring – we make a difference every day, helping people care for others and keeping them safe.

Every day, organizations invest in technologies that improve communication, lone-worker safety, and operational efficiency. Yet when incidents occur, technology is only part of the answer. Human performance, culture, trust, and leadership shape the conditions under which teams respond effectively.

Mobility isn’t just about movement—it’s about confidence in every step. From industrial, manufacturing, and pharmaceutical companies, to retail, hospitality, and high-secure establishments, Ascom’s professional devices are built to keep enterprise teams connected, responsive, and informed—no matter where the job takes them.

The era of ventilator integration to the patient record

Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is one of the UK’s biggest providers of integrated hospital and community-based healthcare, offering a comprehensive range of local and tertiary services. Within the organization, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) plays a critical role in caring for the most vulnerable patients—newborns requiring advanced medical support due to prematurity, congenital conditions, or severe illness.

In explosive atmospheres, even a small spark or overheating caused by non-compliant electronics can trigger a serious incident. This is why communication in ATEX environments is not just a matter of connectivity, but of safety, compliance, and operational continuity. Supporting an effective response and protecting staff starts with intrinsically safe devices—but it doesn't end there.

As healthcare digitalizes, managing both clinical and personal alarms is key to ensuring safety, prompt responses, and high-quality care. The experience of the Frosinone Local Health Authority in Italy demonstrates how a structured approach can be adopted to coordinate the management of patient safety events and incidents related to the protection of healthcare staff.
