A legal requirement. Essential protection.

Bill 16 on the safety of seniors requires that residential buildings and housing facilities for independent or loss-of-autonomy persons be equipped with a call-for-help system. GMS Sécurité offers complete, UL-1069-certified solutions for seniors’ residences, hospitals and care facilities.

What the system allows

A nurse call system lets a resident or patient alert staff quickly when needed, and be located without delay. The response staff can respond more effectively, and residents have the peace of mind of knowing that help is always accessible.

GMS installs one-way and two-way systems depending on the needs of your facility.
