The nurse call system market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.44 billion in 2023 to $2.74 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.2%. The growth observed in the historical period in the field of nurse call systems can be attributed to several factors, including the overall growth of the healthcare industry, the aging population leading to increased healthcare needs, a heightened focus on patient safety, regulatory compliance requirements, and the emphasis on improving emergency response capabilities in healthcare facilities.

The nurse call system market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.51 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.2%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period in the field of nurse call systems can be attributed to various factors, including a heightened focus on infection control, the integration of telehealth services, an emphasis on sustainable practices, the utilization of mobile applications, and a commitment to enhancing both staff and patient satisfaction. Major trends expected in this forecast period encompass the incorporation of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare settings, the use of real-time location services (RTLS), ongoing technological advancements in nurse call systems, and the expansion of remote patient monitoring capabilities.

The growth of the nurse call system market is significantly influenced by the increasing geriatric population. Elderly individuals are more prone to diseases such as osteoarthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, and diabetes mellitus due to a slower-developing immune system with age. The surge in the global elderly population has heightened the demand for effective nursing care services, emphasizing prompt response and streamlined, personalized communication among patients. According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, the worldwide population aged 65 years and above was around 727 million in 2020, and this number is anticipated to reach approximately 1.5 billion by 2050. Consequently, the growth of the nurse call system market is propelled by the rise in the geriatric population.

The anticipated growth of the nurse call system market is further driven by the increasing expenditure on healthcare. Healthcare expenditure encompasses the total financial investment made by individuals, governments, or organizations in healthcare services, treatments, medications, and related costs within a specific timeframe. As healthcare facilities strive to enhance patient care and streamline communication, nurse call systems have become pivotal in healthcare infrastructure. For instance, in 2021, health spending in Germany rose to $517.7 billion (474.1 billion euros), constituting 13.2% of the country's GDP, according to the Statistisches Bundesamt. Additionally, in 2021, the United States witnessed a 2.7% increase in healthcare spending, reaching $12,914 per person or $4.3 trillion, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Therefore, the increasing healthcare expenditure is a driving force behind the growth of the nurse call system market.

A notable trend in the nurse call systems market is the emergence of strategic partnerships. Major companies in the nurse call systems sector are actively pursuing partnerships to fortify their market positions. For example, in August 2021, Switzerland-based Ascom Holding AG, a telecommunications company, collaborated with US-based consulting company Vizient Inc. This partnership allows Vizient members to access special pre-negotiated pricing and terms for the Ascom nurse call and monitoring system. Another instance is the strategic partnership between PalCare and NOTIFY Nurse Call in June 2020, focusing on advancing nurse call system development for senior living communities.

Major companies in the nurse call system market are innovating by introducing new wireless nurse call solutions, such as the wireless nurse call system. This healthcare communication system enables patients in hospitals and healthcare facilities to request assistance or alert staff during medical emergencies. For instance, in August 2021, US-based RF Technologies launched the Quick Response Pro nurse call system, a wireless solution meeting the UL 1069 Standard for Hospital Signaling and Nurse Call Equipment. The system enhances patient care and safety through features like corridor dome lights, quick look displays, strobe lights with sounders, and multi-color zone lights. The CODE ALERT Enterprise software manages the system, streamlining alert reception and categorization, providing facility map views, and offering robust reporting capabilities.

In December 2021, Baxter International Inc., a US-based healthcare company, acquired Hillrom for USD 10.5 billion. This strategic acquisition is expected to provide Baxter with increased growth opportunities and enhanced connectivity prospects, leveraging Hillrom's advanced digital health innovation to improve care, reduce costs, and enhance workflow efficiency. Hillrom is a US-based manufacturer of healthcare products, including nurse call systems.
