Audio systems can be installed in multiple rooms to provide music distribution and can also be used for announcements or alerts. Talk-back audio systems can also be utilised. Music can be played from online streaming services or local digital content. This allows residents to listen to music at any time.

Announcements can be programmed into the system to remind residents to do things such as take medication or to remind them of special events. We can also use announcements to play pre-recorded messages when an emergency situation is activated, such as a fire alarm or fall detector.

Talk-back audio systems are very useful in emergency situations allowing carers to be able to talk with the residents immediately. This allows carers to get a quick diagnosis of what is wrong but also gives them the ability to keep the resident calm and inform them that help is on the way.

Video distribution allows for video sources such as Foxtel or Blu-ray players to be shared with multiple TV’s. This helps keep the costs of monthly subscriptions down and also reduces clutter and cabling at each TV.
