The Silent Hospital project
RCHT’s Silent Hospital Project focuses on reducing noise and “alarm fatigue” on a postnatal ward by silencing patient call bells and routing alerts directly to staff smartphones. The DNV Imatis platform, has been tailored to meet the specific needs of RCHT and is integrated with Wandsworth nurse call system. The implementation has resulted in a quieter ward
environment, improved patient sleep quality, and a calmer working atmosphere for staff. These changes have led to better patient recovery times and increased satisfaction for both staff and patients, demonstrating the positive impact of the silent hospital approach.
The selected winners will be announced during the awards ceremony at Evolution London on 20th March 2025.
