Hospital Clock Systems

In hospital settings, having an accurate, dependable timekeeping system is crucial. Doctors, nurses and hospital staff must tend to their patients on time to provide the best possible care. Reports, charts and procedures for dispensing medication, obtaining lab test results and documenting files need a consistent time notation.

National Time & Signal has hospital clock systems that provide synchronized time throughout your facility. Synchronized clock systems ensure every clock in the hospital has the same time to support time management and organization.

Minimize legal issues

Many medical procedures, lab tests and medications must have the correct times recorded in the patient’s medical file. Synchronized hospital clocks allow staff to record a precise time for when patients receive care without any discrepancies. This level of accuracy can reduce the chance of legal problems in the future.

Keep accurate records

Watches, cellphones and computers can each display different times, creating discrepancies in patient records. With a hospital clock system, staff can reference a single accurate clock to record the time.

Hospital Clocks From National Time

National Time & Signal has a selection of clocks for hospital settings that provide reliable time in a cost-effective system. With synchronization, all departments and buildings across the hospital campus will be on the same time, leading to high-quality patient care.

Wired Clocks

Wired clock systems use physical wires to connect the master clock to all other clocks in the system. The master clock sends signals along the wires to the other clocks to update them, ensuring all clocks display the same, accurate time. Wired clocks from NATSCO include:

  • Spectrum clocks: The Spectrum Wired clocks are energy-efficient, allowing you to keep precise time across all your clocks in large buildings.
  • Digital clocks: Our digital clocks display time in 12- or 24-hour formats on a bright screen. The low power consumption is environmentally friendly.
  • Master clocks: The master clocks control your synchronized time system, delivering updates to all the clocks in your hospital, including daylight saving time.

Wireless Clocks

Wireless clock systems use a radio frequency (RF) or internet signal to ensure all clocks are accurate and consistent. With clock-to-clock meshing technology and your IT infrastructure, you can have a synchronized clock system without physical wires. The wireless clocks available from National Time include:

  • TimeCast™ clocks: Our simple and cost-effective TimeCast™ clock system uses Two-Way RF communication to transmit time data to clocks. TimeCast™ can be used with both RF and Wi-Fi installations.
  • Wi-Fi clocks: The Wi-Fi clocks use your Wi-Fi network to obtain the time over the internet and push the accurate time to the other clocks.
