See exactly who is calling
Up to 16 characters of calling information — like “Ward 5 Bed 1” — appears on the duty station panel, so staff know precisely where help is needed.
Nurse call duty station · up to 3000 buttons
BellMe B-901 Display Panel
Know exactly who is calling — and keep a record of every call. The B-901 shows up to 16 characters of calling information at the duty station, while the Voerka W900 software records each call and cancel for reporting.
Knowing who called — and when — shouldn't be a guessing game
In a large facility, a call for help is only useful if staff know exactly where it came from — a corridor number or a generic bell sends them searching room by room.
And without records, there is no way to prove how quickly calls were answered — no call times, no cancel times, nothing to review or report on when questions are asked.
A duty station panel that shows who is calling — and software that remembers
The B-901 displays up to 16 characters of calling information — such as “Ward 5 Bed 1” — so staff go straight to the right room. Together with the Smart Gateway and the Voerka W900 Desktop Software, every call and cancel is recorded with its time, ready to view and export to Excel for record keeping and reporting.
The calling information your team sees the moment a button is pressed — clear, specific and unmissable at the duty station.
Know who called. Prove when it was answered.
Every call on record
The Voerka W900 software records the call and cancel times of every button, with reports you can export to Excel for record keeping and reporting.
Room to grow
Up to 3000 nurse call buttons per panel, with capacity software activated as your facility grows — no need to replace the system.
Calls stay until cleared
Calling information remains on display until the cancel button is pressed or the call is automatically cancelled — nothing is lost or forgotten.
From boxes to calling information in three steps

Built for facilities where every call counts
A typical B-901 installation: the display panel, smart gateway and the PC running the Voerka W900 software, all connected to one router via LAN cable — with the internet keeping everything online.
Features and capabilities
Capacity, software reporting, display behaviour and cancellation options for the B-901 system.
Nurse call button capacity
Up to 3000 nurse call buttons can be programmed to this display panel. Depending on the number of nurse call buttons required, the respective capacity software will be activated.
Desktop software
Works in conjunction with the W-900 Desktop Software, allowing you to view and extract reports that indicate the call and cancel times of the nurse call buttons.
16-character display
Display information allows for up to 16 characters. The characters may be aliphatic, numerical, or a combination of the two — for example, “Ward 5 Bed 1”.
Display time
When a nurse call button is pressed, the calling information remains on the duty station display panel until the cancel button is pressed, or until the call is automatically cancelled depending on your settings.
Auto-cancel
If you do not wish to use cancel buttons, the duty station display panel can be set to cancel calls automatically after your chosen period of time.
