Connect with an expert

Purpose-built for patient care

Communicate intuitively: Make, receive, transfer and forward calls using a voice-driven experience. Say, “OK Vocera” to wake up the device and start communicating.
Staff effectiveness: Communicate effectively, even under restrictive personal protective equipment (PPE), to help reduce the spread of infection. In an emergency, activate the dedicated panic button to discreetly open a communication channel to the response team.
Help reduce interruption fatigue and stay focused on critical patient care: Set your device to do-not-disturb mode and accept or decline notifications. Avoid communication dead ends with call escalation to the next available person or team.
Easily reach the right person or team: Reach contacts by saying their name, role, group or extension. Page a user or group. Call people inside or outside your health system.
Triage events: Determine the urgency of events via notifications with detailed context on the Smartbadge.
Leverage smartphone functionality: Get smartphone usability and hands-free mobility with the Smartbadge’s touchscreen.
