Singlewire Software brings your safety and communication tools together in one platform. With InformaCast, the InformaCast Wearable Alert Badges, and Visitor Aware, your team can send alerts instantly, reach everyone on any device, and respond faster to daily needs and emergencies alike.

Facility-Wide
Notification

Send text, audio, and visual alerts to phones, speakers, desktops, signage, and more, so no one misses a message.

Code Blue &
Medical Alerts

Activate a code blue or request medical assistance in seconds, and send it to the exact team that needs to respond.

Staff
Protection

Give staff personal panic buttons they can activate anywhere in your facility. Safety teams receive the person’s name and location and respond right away.

Security Threats
& Lockdown

When a threat arises, initiate a lockdown and share procedures instantly with staff and visitors on both mobile and on-site devices.

Patient Wander
Management

Tie into patient tracking devices and receive an alert the moment a patient moves outside a safe area.

Severe Weather
Alerting

Monitor National Weather Service feeds and send automated alerts, so your team can act before a storm arrives.

Visitor
Check-In

Screen every visitor against a national database to keep unwanted guests from gaining access to your facilities.

Complete Incident
Management

From the first alert to the final all-clear, manage every step of a critical event with access to vital resources, the ability to gather key people, and after-action reporting.

Overhead
Paging

Make timely announcements with ease. Send live or recorded audio through a two-way, hands-free intercom, and use push-to-talk on desk phones and IP speakers.

Scheduled
Announcements

Automate daily audio and text announcements for visiting hours, shift changes, and other regular events, so your team stays on the same page without extra effort.

IT & System
Outage Updates

Send fast, clear updates when a system goes down. Keep staff informed about outages, and know right away when a connected device goes offline.

Equipment
Monitoring

Tie into your facility’s connected devices to watch critical equipment, such as generators or refrigerators holding sensitive materials, so you can stay ahead of issues that could disrupt care.

Cleanup
Requests

Add single-press buttons on desk phones and other devices to signal that a room is ready for cleaning or that hazardous waste is ready for disposal.

Shift
Coverage

Send text messages and emails that ask for a reply to help fill shifts due to illness or inclement weather, so you can sort coverage quickly.

The InformaCast® Wearable Alert Badge.
Personal protection for the people who care for others.

Healthcare workers face hard moments alone — a disruptive visitor, a patient in crisis, or a walk to the car after a late shift. The InformaCast Wearable Alert Badge is the only wireless panic button powered directly by InformaCast. Staff can request help with a discreet press, and your safety team sees who needs help and exactly where they are.

  • Two button press options to distinguish everyday assistance from facility-wide emergencies
  • Floor- and room-level location accuracy, so help knows exactly where to go
  • Effective alerting and response through intrusive notifications and real-time insights

Your connected suite for campus movement and safety.

Bring your systems together.
Get more from what you already own.

Most facilities already have phones, speakers, sensors, and cameras. InformaCast connects them. With nearly 100 integration partners, InformaCast helps your existing technology work as one—no rip and replace, and no juggling separate tools. That means a faster response when every moment matters, and more value from the investments you have already made.

See how other healthcare institutions use InformaCast to protect staff, improve patient care, and enhance daily operations.
