Abstract
A nurse call system includes a nurse call slave device, a nurse call master device, a plate slave device, a bedside monitor, a corridor light, a control unit, and nurse mobile phones. The nurse call slave device is provided for each bed in a hospital room for allowing a hospitalized patient to call a nurse. The nurse call master device is provided at a nurse station for answering a call from the nurse call slave device. The plate slave device, the corridor light, or the control unit has an automatic answering unit for automatically answering a call from the nurse call slave device, and causes the automatic answering unit to automatically answer at least a part of calls from the nurse call slave device without calling the nurse call master device and the nurse mobile phones.
