Job Description
About SSG:
At SSG we believe that human interaction is an essential part of the care giving process, and that good technology should enable caregivers to be free from unnecessary distractions, so they can focus on giving their patients the care they need, when they need it.
That’s why, for almost 60 years, we have been developing smart solutions and technologies that connect people and systems to provide safer, heathier environments for both staff and patients in the acute care setting.
From our first electronic nurse ‘call bell’ system launched in 1964, that enabled patients in hospital to call for help, we have continued to explore ways that technology can work for our customers. Whether that is providing essential critical alarms, integrated communication systems or software solutions to enhance clinical workflow, our focus is on keeping patients safe, providing a calming environment, and giving our customers more time to care.
We are proud to be a British manufacturer, with a strong heritage in product design, build and installation. As technology advances, our digital solutions can help customers evolve with the ever-changing demands of the healthcare environment, preserving resources, reducing costs and improving patient care.
Our people are inspired and empowered to develop best in class solutions that have a positive impact on the patient and carer experience. As part of the Halma family, we are passionate about creating a safer, cleaner and healthier future for everyone, every day.
OUR PURPOSE – To create a world where every patient feels safe.
OUR VISION – A world where technology works for people, so that caregivers have more time to care for their patients.
OUR MISSION – We provide smart communication solutions, connecting caregivers, patients and data, to improve workflow and decision making, so that patients get the care they need, when they need it.
