POtresppiident
Swear in new clerk
at Hensall inaugural
(Continued from Page 1)
says "Employees in the on-call
hospital departments - operating
room, radiology, x-ray, the lab
and doctors take a beeper out of
the hospital when they go on
call," Ambulance employees also
use a beeper when on call.
The beeper is an electronic
calling device, a small rectang-
ular box shape, with no wires,
plugs or aerials, that can receive
signals from a hospital based
in-coder from within ten miles of
the hospital. Seaforth Community
Hospital has ten beepers and
when someone at the hospital
wants to reach an employee on
call, they push the numbers on
the in-coder which correspond to
the numbers on 'the employee's
beeper.
The employee, say an x-ray
• technician enjoying a hockey
game at the arena, hears six
beeps on her machine. She can
push a button and hear what the
hospital wants, but can't reply
through the beeper. "It's a one
way ,,communicator, a two way
systdm would cost quite a bit
more money." Mr. McKenzie
explained.
After being beeped, the hosp-
ital employee phones into the
hospital switchboard or heads to
the hospital. The beepers have to
be recharged after twenty-four
hours, so are checked out only for
the on-call period. A charging
rack and battery are kept at the
hospital, along with a generator,
the in-coder and an antenna on
the roof.
Hospital administrator Mac
Kenzie says the beepers are
working out very well. "Every-
body likes them. . ,they give
people more flexibility. . .let's
them lead a normal life while on
call."
"They're not really a life
saving thing, they're a conven-
ience." The hospital's mainten-
ance staff can use them too.
Perhaps one man is out mowing
the lawn and is .wanted in the
boiler room. Well, he can be
called in on the beeper. It's
simple and saves an awful lot of
running around."
Mr. MacKenzie added that the
beeper is used in Exeter and
several London and Toronto
hospitals.
If you are at a social event or'
downtown shopping and the
person beside you seems to be
making beeping noises, relax. It's
just Seaforth Community Hospital
requiring somebody's services.
