The seminar has been independently certified as conforming to industry CPD (Continuing Professional Development) guidelines by the Construction CPD Certification Service.

The focus of the paper - which has already been presented to a number of consultancy practices and professional organisations including the Institute of Healthcare Engineering and Estate Management (IHEEM) - is a review of the key issues that need to be considered by those involved in the specification and design of Nurse Call and Bedhead Services Systems.

The presentation provides an overview of issues such as; policy, design considerations and operational management in the design, supply and implementation of bedhead services and sets out to unpack these issues for the audience.
