Our company was founded in 1984 by three partners with a primary objective of importing cost-effective paging systems from the Far East. The company has evolved through the active engagement in the advancements of broadband technology and the development of the internet and beyond.

The current Managing Director, Bob Johnson, has amassed extensive experience in the paging and NurseCall sectors since 1968. His global expertise encompasses a diverse range of operations across Western nations, including the United States and the Middle East. 

This international exposure is now reflected within the UK market, where many of the equipment functionalities are universally applicable. In 1998, Edison Telecom acquired GD Engineering, a reputable firm located in Ilford, known for its range of hard-wired NurseCall products widely utilised in NHS hospitals and Care facilities. 

This acquisition was intended to enhance our offerings by integrating GD Engineering's established product line into the existing portfolio. The acquisition was executed under stringent conditions to ensure that GD’s loyal clientele continued to receive service of the highest standards to which they had become accustomed. Over the past two decades, we have steadfastly supported GD’s customers, upholding the principles of quality service.

Our core mission is to cater to the needs of the Healthcare industry, providing comprehensive services that include the maintenance, enhancement, and installation of legacy systems, alongside the latest Wireless and Wired NurseCall and the introduction of the latest IP-based solutions. 

The approach adopted by Edison involves engaging in thorough discussions with clients to ascertain their requirements, focusing initially on enhancing existing services before presenting the most advantageous options available. We work collaboratively with institutions of varying sizes within the Care sector, ensuring that all client specifications are met with precision. 

Our extensive inventory of both new and legacy products, combined with the vast experience of our team members, positions us uniquely in the market. The collective knowledge of our team spans numerous manufacturers and systems, and our progressive younger directors are well-versed in the latest IP technology. Indeed, if a NurseCall system exists, it is likely that Edison has had experience with it. 

We are also committed to the development of skills among its workforce, boasting a long-standing tradition of successful apprenticeships—one of which has successfully advanced to the position of director. This commitment enables us to maintain a team of proficient engineers while fostering internal promotion, resulting in a proactive and confident team dedicated to excellence. 

As we continue to thrive, we are witnessing significant growth in our market share and an expanding customer base within the healthcare sector.
