Dome light display of the staff level reminder ceases.

The reminder row disappears from staff consoles and
•
annunciators.
Note: A patient normal call is cleared from the system when a staff
member finishes answering the call at a staff console or
annunciator.
Cleaning patient stations
Cleaning mode temporarily deactivates station buttons so
associated stations can be cleaned without danger of changing the
status of nurse calls during the cleaning process.
Note: Because patients cannot place nurse calls when stations are
in cleaning mode; it may be best to clean stations when no patients
are occupying beds in the room.
To clean a patient station and any associated stations:
1. Ensure that all calls on associated patient room stations have
been canceled.
2. Spray or soak a soft cloth with the disinfectant typically used by
your facility's maintenance staff (e.g., Sidex, Staphine, or a 10%
bleach/water solution).
3. Ensure that the station to be cleaned is idle (no light should be lit
or flashing).
4. Press and hold down the patient station's Cancel button for
about 4 seconds.
The patient station emits two feedback tones while you are
•
holding down the Cancel button.
The station and any associated stations enter a 15-second
•
cleaning mode period, shown by the flashing of the patient
station's Cancel light.
Notes
• A different amount of time for cleaning mode may be
configured at your facility.
• If not finished cleaning a station by the time the Cancel light
stops flashing, put the station into cleaning mode again.
5. Gently wipe the surface of the station with the damp cloth.
6. Clean any associated cords using the damp cloth.
7. Use another soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the station
and cords dry.
Notes
• Microfiber cloth is recommended for cleaning Telligence
stations.
