Description

List of Tables

Nurse Call Systems Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Equipment Type (Basic Audio/Visual Nurse Call Systems, Digital Nurse Call Systems, IP-Based Nurse Call System, Nurse Call Intercoms, and Nurse Call Mobile Systems) by Communication (Wired Nurse Call Systems, and Wireless Nurse Call Systems) and by End-Users (Hospitals & Clinics, Ambulatory Care Centers, and Others ) Forecast Period (2025-2035)

Industry Overview

Nurse call systems market was valued at approximately $2.3 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $6.9 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 10.6% during the forecast period. This growth is primarily attributed to the rising geriatric population, the prevalence of chronic diseases, and the need for enhanced patient safety and operational efficiency in healthcare settings. Technological advancements, such as the integration of wireless and mobile nurse call systems, are further propelling market expansion. North America currently holds the largest market share, accounting for 42% in 2024, due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure and early adoption of digital health technologies. However, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to witness the fastest growth, driven by increasing healthcare investments and modernization efforts in countries like China and India.

Market Dynamics

Hospital Modernization and Patient-Safety Mandates

Upgrading inpatient units to meet patient-safety goals (reduced response times, fall prevention, and better alarm triage) is a direct driver of nurse-call replacement cycles. Hospitals seeking to reduce alarm fatigue and demonstrate compliance with clinical standards are investing in systems that route alerts intelligently, integrate with EHRs, and generate analytics for process improvement - all features that favor digital/IP nurse-call platforms over legacy audio/visual systems.

Technology Convergence: IP, Mobile, and Interoperability

The convergence of IP networking, secure mobile communications, and open integrations (RTLS, EHRs, clinical workflow suites) is expanding the functional scope of nurse-call systems. Vendors that offer cloud-capable software, smartphone notifications, and APIs for third-party apps are winning larger deals because hospitals prefer solutions that reduce silos and improve staff efficiency. This technological push also increases recurring revenue opportunities through service, maintenance, and cloud subscriptions.

Demographics and healthcare infrastructure expansion in emerging markets

Aging populations in developed markets and rapid hospital buildouts in parts of Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America are creating new demand. Emerging markets often leapfrog legacy technologies directly to wireless and IP solutions when building new facilities, accelerating the adoption of advanced nurse-call systems in greenfield hospitals. Combined with growing healthcare spending, these trends support steady long-term demand.

Market Segmentation

Based on the equipment type, the market is segmented into basic audio/visual nurse call systems, digital nurse call systems, IP-based nurse call systems, nurse call intercoms, and nurse call mobile systems.
Based on the communication, the market is segmented into wired nurse call systems and wireless nurse call systems.
Based on the end-users, the market is segmented into hospitals & clinics, ambulatory care centers, and others.

Wired Nurse Call Systems is the Largest Segment in the Global Nurse Call Systems Market

The wired nurse-call systems have the largest share by communication type in 2024 because a significant installed base of hospitals still relies on hardwired infrastructure; wired systems historically dominate new installs where reliability and deterministic behavior are prioritized (acute care, ICU). For instance, several market analyses reported that wired deployments accounted for a majority share, reflecting both retrofit market activity and new hospital contracts that specify hardwired backbones for mission-critical rooms. That said, IP-based and wireless nurse-call systems are the key growth segments: they are capturing increasingly large portions of new contracts because they offer integration, scalability, and lower total cost of ownership for facilities moving to digital workflows. Thus, the market picture is wired, retaining the largest share today, while IP/digital leads incremental growth and long-term share gains.

IP-Based Nurse Call Systems: A Key Segment in Market Growth

Among all equipment types, IP-Based Nurse Call Systems are emerging as the key growth segment in the Global Nurse Call Systems Market. The increasing adoption of advanced communication technologies in healthcare facilities is driving this segment forward, as IP-based systems offer superior connectivity, integration with electronic health records (EHRs), real-time communication, and scalability compared to conventional solutions. These systems support seamless interoperability with hospital information systems, improving workflow efficiency and reducing patient response times, which directly enhances patient safety and satisfaction. Moreover, with the rising emphasis on value-based care and smart healthcare infrastructure, hospitals are investing heavily in IP-based nurse call systems to streamline clinical communication, reduce staff burden, and improve overall operational efficiency. The segment is further supported by the rapid expansion of telehealth, the growing number of large hospital chains adopting digitalization strategies, and favorable government initiatives for modernizing healthcare facilities. Technological advancements, such as mobile integrations, wireless connectivity, and data-driven analytics, also add to the growing appeal of IP-based systems. Consequently, the IP-based nurse call systems segment is expected to register the fastest growth rate during the forecast period, outpacing traditional audio/visual solutions and becoming a central component of smart hospital ecosystems globally.

Regional Outlook

The global nurse call systems market is further divided by region, including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, ASEAN Countries, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).

North America Maintains Strong Market Position

The US dominates the global nurse call systems market with a major share, driven by its advanced healthcare infrastructure, strong adoption of digital health technologies, and high healthcare spending. US hospitals and healthcare facilities are early adopters of modern communication solutions, including digital and IP-based nurse call systems, due to the emphasis on patient safety, workflow efficiency, and regulatory compliance. The presence of leading global players and continuous innovations in healthcare IT further strengthen the country's position. Additionally, the rising geriatric population and the growing prevalence of chronic diseases have increased demand for efficient patient monitoring and rapid response systems, pushing hospitals and long-term care facilities to upgrade to advanced nurse call solutions. Supportive government initiatives encouraging the adoption of smart healthcare technologies, alongside robust investments in hospital modernization, continue to fuel market expansion. The US also benefits from a well-established ecosystem of technology providers, system integrators, and healthcare organizations that work collaboratively to develop and deploy cutting-edge communication platforms. With its strong focus on digital transformation in healthcare, the United States is expected to maintain its dominance in the global nurse call systems market throughout the forecast period.
