Mobile coverage for care homes, retirement and build-to-rent
Keep residents in touch and staff within reach. Improve mobile reception in homes, shared spaces and the areas where care teams work.
Close the gaps that interrupt your working day
Insulated construction, lower-ground rooms and repeated internal walls can block mobile signals. Residents struggle to call family and staff step away from their work area to return a call.
Shared living areas
Keep visitors and residents connected in communal spaces.
Staff areas
Support routine calls across offices, service rooms and corridors.
Put mobile coverage where the work happens
We design mobile coverage around residents’ rooms, shared spaces and staff working routes. We coordinate discreet installation around occupied accommodation and support the system after handover.
The return for your operation
