Why it’s dangerous
The beds may alert the nurse when the bed exit system is activated but fail to send a remote alert through the Rauland Responder 5 Nurse Call System. This could result in delayed response to patient needs if the nurse is not notified.
Who’s affected
Healthcare facilities using the affected Centrella Smart+ hospital beds are most at risk, as the interface issue could prevent nurse call alerts from reaching the nursing staff.
