Hospital two-way radios for quiet, instant communication
In hospitals, clinics and aged care homes, staff need to call for help, coordinate transfers and respond to alarms without shouting down corridors or waiting for a phone. Radio Industries supplies discreet two-way radios, Wi-Fi radios, call points and body-worn cameras for nursing, security, porters, maintenance and support teams across Australia. Our hospital two-way radios are discreet and simple for busy staff to use.

Use near medical equipment
Low-power business radios are widely used in hospitals, but each facility sets its own rules for radios near sensitive medical equipment. Follow your facility's policy, and talk to us about Wi-Fi or low-power options where needed. Our system design team can plan coverage across wards, car parks and multiple buildings.
Supply and support
We program radios before dispatch, supply chargers and earpieces, and repair radios when needed. Related page: security and emergency. Private business channels are licensed through an ACMA land mobile licence, and we can arrange this for you. Contact us for availability, lead times or a suitable alternative.
Two-Way Radios for Hospitals, Healthcare & Aged Care FAQs
Are two-way radios safe to use in a hospital?
Low-power business radios are widely used in hospitals, but every facility sets its own policy for use near medical equipment. Check your facility's rules, and we can suggest Wi-Fi or low-power options.
Which radios suit nurses and aged care staff?
Small, light radios with a discreet earpiece suit most care teams, such as the Motorola Curve or Hytera S1 Pro. Larger sites often add Wi-Fi radios or push-to-talk over cellular.
Can residents or patients press a button to call staff?
Call boxes can send a voice alert straight to staff radios from a fixed point such as a reception desk or common room. See call boxes.
Do body-worn cameras help in healthcare?
Many hospitals and emergency departments use them to help deter aggression and record incidents. Check your privacy obligations before deploying. See body-worn cameras.
Can you cover several buildings or campuses?
Yes. We can use repeaters, Wi-Fi radios or push-to-talk over cellular to connect multiple buildings. Call 1300 266 682 to discuss your site.
