Industries
A recovery-room call needs to reach the nurses' station in seconds, a code blue needs every system responding together, and none of it works unless it was designed into the building from day one.
Hiscall designs, installs and supports nurse call code blue systems, phone systems, synchronized clocks, conference and operating room audio/visual, CCTV and access control for Tennessee ambulatory surgery centers. One certified team installs it, and the same team answers when you call.

Every technician who enters your facility is a badged Hiscall employee. We do not subcontract installation or support.
An ambulatory surgery center runs on communication that state and local regulations don't treat as optional: a patient has to be able to request aid, staff have to be able to respond to an emergency, and that response has to work every single time. Cost-effective, reliable technology is what makes that possible without slowing a busy case schedule down. None of it works, though, unless it was planned into the facility itself from the start. Hiscall designs the whole system, from the architectural drawings through the day a patient's call reaches the nurses' station, and supports all of it with the same certified technicians who installed it.
How it fits together
From a patient's call to the blueprint it's built on
A surgery center depends on a routine call and a full code blue both reaching the right people instantly, every case running on the same clock, and the systems behind all of it being engineered into the building rather than added afterward. Built as one system, all four hold up together. Built from four separate vendors, all four are the first things a regulator or a surveyor asks about.
The call
Nurse call code blue systems let a patient or a care team escalate instantly from a routine request to a full emergency response, reaching the right staff the moment it matters most.
The room
Synchronized clock systems keep every case on the same clock, while conference and operating room audio/visual bring the right specialist or image into the room, whether they're down the hall or off site.
The record
Cloud and premise-based phone systems, SIP trunks and data networking keep documentation and communication moving the way state and local regulations expect.
The build
Detailed architectural design service plans every low-voltage system into the facility itself, so life-safety systems are engineered in from the start, not bolted on after the walls go up.
Why one team
What actually changes when one team owns the whole system
A facility that buys nurse call, phones and cameras from three vendors owns the gaps between them too, usually the ones a surveyor or an inspector finds first. Here is what that costs in practice.
| Where it counts | Hiscall | Separate vendors per system |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | One team, one schedule | Coordinated by you, across contractors |
| Support calls | A Hiscall employee who knows your facility | Whichever vendor you guess is responsible |
| System integration | Designed together from the start | Bolted together after the fact, if at all |
| Life-safety readiness | Designed into the building from day one | Retrofitted after construction, if at all |
| Everything else | Cabling, cameras, AV, IT, all included | Another vendor, another contract |
Built for the OR, not adapted to it
Four capabilities that general low voltage contractors typically do not carry.
- Nurse call code blue systems. Escalates instantly from a routine patient request to a full emergency response, reaching every staff member who needs to know.
- Detailed architectural design service. Plans every low-voltage system into the building's actual construction or renovation drawings, not as an afterthought once walls are already up.
- Synchronized clock systems. Keeps every case, every room and every record on the same verified time.
- Cloud monitoring for temperature, humidity & water. Alerts staff to an environmental problem before it threatens a sterile environment or a case.
What we install
Every system in the facility, from one team
Most facilities buy each system from a different vendor, then spend years getting them to talk to each other. We put them on one design and one support relationship.
Phone systems
Cloud and premise-based phone systems with SIP trunks through Hiscall Voice Connect, keeping every line reliable.
TelecommunicationsCabling and infrastructure
Copper and fiber optic low voltage infrastructure installed by BICSI-certified technicians, designed into the facility from the architectural drawings forward.
Network cablingNurse call, access control & ID badges
Nurse call code blue systems, access control, staff ID badges and CCTV security cameras, under Tennessee CCTV license #1405.
Security solutionsData networking
Data networking equipment that keeps phones, nurse call and monitoring running reliably across the facility.
IT services & data networkingConference & operating room AV
Audio/visual systems for the operating room and conference spaces, bringing a specialist or an image into the room when it matters.
Audio visualSynchronized clocks & environmental monitoring
Synchronized clock systems and cloud monitoring/alerting for temperature, humidity and water across the facility.
Audio visualFacilities we work with every week
From a single-specialty surgery center to a multi-site group, with the same certified technicians on every job.
- Ambulatory surgery centers. Nurse call code blue, OR audio/visual and access control scoped to a single facility, not sold as an enterprise package.
- Physician offices & specialty clinics. The same reliable phone and communication systems, sized to a smaller footprint.
- New construction & renovation projects. Detailed architectural design service plans every low-voltage system in before the walls go up.
- Multi-specialty & multi-site surgery groups. One standard system that repeats cleanly across every location, with one point of contact instead of a different vendor per site.
How we work
Five steps, and you know who to call at each one
Survey
We come to you at no charge, look at what is already in place, and tell you honestly what should be replaced and what has life left in it.
Design
You get a documented scope and clear pricing. For new construction or a renovation, our architectural design service plans every system into the drawings from the start.
Install
Our own badged technicians do the work, on time and on budget, scheduled around your case load, not around us.
Train
On-site sessions for clinical, front desk and administrative staff, repeated as often as your team needs it.
Support
You call us directly, not a queue, with 24/7/365 emergency response and unlimited moves, adds and changes.
Local technicians, statewide coverage
Two Tennessee offices mean a certified Hiscall employee on site rather than a subcontractor you have never met. Cloud-managed systems let us monitor, configure and resolve a great deal remotely, so a multi-site surgery group costs you far less time than it used to.
- Dickson. Corporate headquarters and 25,000 square foot distribution facility, serving Middle Tennessee and the Nashville region. Reach the Dickson office directly at (615) 740-7771.
- Knoxville. Branch office at 4620 Old Broadway, serving East Tennessee since 2001, with the same certified technicians and the same emergency response. Reach the Knoxville office directly at (865) 862-4650.
- You reach a person. You work directly with a trained, certified, Hiscall-badged employee. Your needs are not outsourced to a call center overseas.

Other industries
The same team, built for eighteen industries
Getting a routine call and a full emergency both to the right people is not the only reason a system has to be designed as one path instead of four. Every industry below gets the same design and support approach.
