Accessibility Services, Inc. Launches BT RemoteSwitch Nurse Call Adapter

Bluetooth device lets patients with severe mobility limitations call for help using the assistive technology they already use

HOMOSASSA, Fla., Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Accessibility Services, Inc. (ASI) today announced the launch of the BT RemoteSwitch, a Bluetooth nurse call adapter that gives patients with limited mobility a direct way to call for help without relying on someone else to notice or interpret their needs.

Traditional nurse call systems require patients to press physical buttons. That is a barrier for many people with high cervical spinal cord injuries, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), severe cerebral palsy or traumatic brain injury.

The BT RemoteSwitch pairs with a patient's iPhone, iPad, Android phone or Android tablet and connects to standard nurse call infrastructure through a quarter-inch jack or standard hospital wall adapters. Patients call for help using tools they already know: TD Snap augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) software, Siri or Google Voice Access; a button or switch; or eye-tracking or head-tracking. Setup typically takes 10 to 15 minutes and requires no changes to facility infrastructure. The device supplements existing nurse call methods and safety protocols rather than replacing them.

"We started by asking patients what they needed," said Brice Green, VP of Business Development at ASI. "Too many people with conditions like ALS or spinal cord injuries were locked out of basic independence."

The BT RemoteSwitch serves hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, home care and senior living communities, and is typically set up by caregivers, Assistive Technology Specialists or Speech-Language Pathologists. The device is available now for purchase through ASI. The companion BT RemoteSwitch app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Visit (https://go.asi-florida.com/C40xW6) or contact ASI to learn more or purchase.

ASI will debut the BT RemoteSwitch at the ALS Nexus Conference, hosted by The ALS Association, Aug. 23-26, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Fla. Attendees can visit ASI in the Nexus Pavilion for a live demonstration and discuss hospital and home care configurations.
