The Challenge:
The Kaiser Permanente Hospital in Oakland, CA is the flagship hospital for Kaiser Permanente which is one of the largest not for profit hospital organizations in the country. The Kaiser Permanente development team is committed to using the latest technologies in order to control and manage the natural light entrance in the building.
The Solution:
The design team at Kaiser Permanente partnered with Somfy and Peninsulators to manufacture and install 390 motorized roller shades powered by Somfy Sonesse® 50 ILT motors into the hospital’s patient rooms. The install utilizes 350 Intelligent Somfy Digital Network Keypads, one animeo® IP Building Controller and one animeo® IP Sub Controller. Intelligent keypads are installed on the headwall of every patient room and are integrated to the patient bedside control system via dry contact wiring.
Benefits:
The automated shades increase productivity of the nursing staff and empower patients by integrating the shading system into the patient bedside control system and nursing stations. The keypads are programmed to provide complete up and down control of the shades, as well as intermediate control at intervals of 25, 50 and 75%. animeo® IP is also programmed into the nurse’s station PC’s to provide additional control and real-time feedback of the shading system, thus ensuring the staff knows the status of all the shades at all times.
