How does it connect to nurse call?
BlackJack is able to connect to any nurse call system via the existing 37-pin or the 1/4” port on the head wall.

How can a cable reduce patient falls?
Most falls happen when the care team isn’t aware the patient is trying to stand – often because the bed isn’t connected to the nurse call system. BlackJack makes it easier to connect your beds, and reduces falls by up to 30%.
What if we don’t plug our beds in?
Not a problem – BlackJack can be trialed on a unit by unit basis to see if it’s effective for you.
The 37-pin port is different room to room.
Right angle, in-line, pig tails and direct bricks are all available as magnetic cables.
