Baldwin Boxall Communications - OmniCare Emergency / Steward Telephone

Emergency telephones (also known as 'steward' telephones) are generally used in sites such as stadia for emergency communication. The OmniCare emergency telephone is just one type of outstation available in the range.

OmniCare is an addressable emergency voice communication system that allows disabled refuge, fire telephones, emergency/steward telephones and disabled toilet alarms to be connected to one master control panel. OmniCare has been designed and built to meet BS9999:2008, BS5839-9:2011 and BS8300:2009 (for the disabled toilet alarm).

BS5839 part 9 recommends that sports stadia/venues install emergency / steward telephones at regular intervals around concourses so no one has to travel more than 30m to reach the nearest outstation.

OmniCare Emergency / Steward telephones are powered from the ring circuit and have the following features:

Green finish
Rugged handset with ‘T-Coil’ hearing aid compatible earpiece and loudspeaker
Hands free use
Door latch initiates call
