Posey® - Nurse Call Cable, 3 ft

Please note: All prices are for individual units.

The Posey® Nurse Call Cable (8282SL) is a critical interface component designed to bridge the gap between Posey® fall monitoring systems and a facility’s existing nurse call infrastructure. This 3-foot cable allows fall alerts to be transmitted directly to the nursing station, ensuring that caregivers are notified immediately of a potential fall event even if they are not within earshot of the local alarm. By integrating the local monitor with the central call system, it provides a redundant layer of safety and facilitates a quieter patient environment by allowing the local alarm volume to be lowered.

This specific model features a standard 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) plug, making it compatible with the majority of hospital nurse call systems. The 3-foot length is optimized for bedside or chairside use, providing enough slack to reach wall jacks without creating excessive cord clutter that could pose a tripping hazard for staff or patients. Constructed with reinforced strain relief at the connection points, this cable is built to withstand the frequent plugging and unplugging common in high-acuity clinical settings.

Key Features

• Centralized Notification: Enables fall alarms to trigger the facility-wide nurse call system, ensuring rapid response from the nursing station.

• Universal 1/4" Plug: Designed to fit standard nurse call wall jacks found in most acute care and long-term care facilities.

• Durable Strain Relief: Features molded connectors to prevent wire fatigue and internal shorts during frequent movement and repositioning.

• Optimized Length: The 3-foot span provides a direct, low-profile connection that minimizes excess cabling around the patient’s bed or chair.

• Quiet Environment Support: Allows the local bedside alarm to be set to a lower volume or "silent" mode while still maintaining remote notification.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• Acute Care Settings: Essential for patients at high risk for falls where a centralized nursing response is required for safety.

• Night Shift Monitoring: Enhances safety during low-staffing hours by ensuring alerts reach central monitors regardless of staff proximity to the room.

• Private Patient Rooms: Provides a reliable link for patients in rooms with closed doors, ensuring their safety alerts are never missed.

Contraindications: Do not use this cable if the facility’s nurse call system requires a different plug type or proprietary digital interface. Do not use if the cable shows signs of fraying, exposed wiring, or damaged connectors.

Warnings & Precautions: This cable is an accessory and does not function as a fall monitor on its own. Always verify that the connection between the monitor, the cable, and the wall jack is secure and that the nurse call system is successfully receiving signals before leaving the patient. Failure to test the connection may result in an unmonitored fall event.

Ensure the cable is routed in a manner that prevents tripping or entanglement with side rails, bed frames, or other equipment. Do not pull on the wire to disconnect; always grasp the plug housing to prevent internal damage. If the nurse call system fails to trigger during a test, check the cable for continuity and ensure the fall monitor is powered on and functioning correctly.
