The global nurse call systems market size was valued at USD 1.7 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.11% from 2023 to 2030.
The growing need for a diverse and integrated platform that increases the preference for mobility aids are driving the market. Medicare decides to refund schemes based on quality and outcome rather than quantity owing to the rising healthcare cost. Medicare estimates that current reimbursement practices are costing an additional USD 2.1 billion and expects to curtail this by using technology-focused healthcare. With this change in reimbursement policies, hospitals and other healthcare facilities are trying to streamline their workflow processes by adopting technology-oriented nurse call systems.

Nurse call systems enable reliable and flexible communication between the patient and the caregiver. Increasing patient numbers in healthcare facilities and the introduction of advanced ways to expand communication, workflow, and management to provide quality patient care are fueling the market growth. The market is primarily driven by technological advancements that have allowed players to create innovative devices. For instance, in December 2019, Tunstall Group launched Tunstall Carecom, a wireless and digital nurse call system.
Growing adoption of real-time location systems (RTLS) integrated with wireless technologies in various healthcare facilities is propelling the market growth. RTLS allows the healthcare facilities to track the movement of the attendants and equipment to increase productivity. For instance, Televic's AQURA Care Communication Platform is an integrated platform with various modules such as nurse call, personal localization (RTLS), patient and staff safety, alarm delivery, personal mobility, and mediator control. The platform is open to integrating both its module and the mediator module, along with the current hospital infrastructure.
However, the high implementation costs can hinder the market expansion. The effectiveness of integrated communication technologies is based on several factors, including software, hardware, and the training level of medical staff. This increases the need for high investments by hospitals, clinics, and home care facilities to effectively implement the devices. In addition, strict regulatory policies related to data breaches can impede industry growth during the forecast period.
Moreover, with the rise in home healthcare and nursing home facilities, major industry players are focusing on the need for better patient response time along with eliminating nurse fatigue. Vendors are differentiating their products by integrating their devices with different diagnostic solutions and technologies. For instance, in June 2019, Vocera Communications, Inc. introduced a new analytics solution that provides information about the number of calls, texts, alarms, and alerts that clinicians receive. Industry players offer customized services as per hospital needs, through such integration.
