In this article you will discover the features of the Wearable Call Button.
What
The Wearable Call Button is a device that allows residents to quickly request assistance by pressing a button worn on the wrist or as a pendant around the neck.
The button is paired directly to the resident, not to a housing unit. This means the call request follows the resident and can be triggered anywhere within range of any Nobi light throughout the care facility.
When pressed:
The alert is linked to the resident who activated it.
The system identifies the resident’s location based on the nearest Nobi light.
Care staff receive the call request through the existing escalation procedure.
Because the button integrates fully with the Nobi platform, it ensures clear identification, accurate localization, and reliable communication during escalations.
The device is lightweight, waterproof, and designed for continuous daily wear, ensuring it is always within reach when needed. It also doesn't requiring charging.
Why
Not every situation requires fall detection—sometimes a resident simply needs help.
The Wearable Call Button gives residents an active and immediate way to request assistance. It supports independence while ensuring that help is always accessible.
With the Wearable Call Button:
Residents can call for help wherever they are within system range.
Care staff immediately know who is calling and where they are.
The request follows the same trusted escalation flow as a fall.
This makes the Wearable Call Button especially valuable for residents who are still mobile but may feel unsteady, anxious, or vulnerable. It enables early intervention and helps prevent incidents before they escalate.
