<p>After an extensive evaluation was conducted, the Rosie II Vital Signs Monitor was selected over competitors for its superior capabilities and flexibility to grow with the needs of the Beverly facilities nursing homes. The monitor rollout began March 1st 2006 and will continue through mid 2006 with the addition of an electronic data transfer component. This phase will allow for resident vital signs data to be transferred to Beverly's clinical software via its Citrix network. Beverly operates 342 skilled nursing facilities, as well as 18 assisted living centers, and 67 hospice and home care centers. Its subsidiary, Aegis Therapies, Inc. provides rehabilitative services on a contract basis. In addition to the Rosie II Vital Signs Monitor, Life Systems distributes a broad line of disposable medical supplies to its 1200+ long term care facility clients under its Nurse Rosie product line.

         <title>Nurse Rosie Products</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>The Nurse Rosie Products brand brings a new level of value and quality to the long term and alternative care markets. Nurse Rosie Products are developed with both patients and care-givers in mind to make daily medical attention easy and comfortable. </p>

<p><strong><em>Who is Nurse Rosie?</em></strong><br />
Nurse Rosie is based on “Rosie the Riveter”, an inspirational symbol for the working women of the WWII era. Many of the qualities that made the Rosies of yesterday such a success - willingness to work, dedication to the cause, and a sense of pride in the work that they do - are the same qualities exhibited by an outstanding healthcare worker today. When the going gets tough, you can depend on Nurse Rosie and Nurse Rosie Products to help your facility get the job done.</p>

<p><strong><em>Why Pink?</em> </strong><br />
Pink is recognized as a calming, soothing color that promotes feelings of protection, warmth, and nurture. It also brightens any room! It is the perfect color in long-term and other healthcare facilities where patients and care givers alike appreciate respite from stress and discomfort. <br />

         <title>Frequently Asked Questions</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>What is a Rosie II vital signs monitor</em>?</strong><br />
The Rosie II monitor is a portable, adult, pediatric and neonatal vital signs monitor.  It accurately, non-invasively and automatically measures systolic, mean and diastolic blood pressures, pulse rate, oxygen saturation (SpO2) and temperature depending on the parameters incorporated into the specific model. The Rosie II takes these measurements in a quarter of the time it takes manually!</p>

<p><strong><em>Do many long term care facilities use the Rosie II vital signs cart?</em></strong><br />
Over 800 facilities use the Rosie II! Our customer list is diverse and includes large corporations like Beverly Enterprises, Life Care Centers of America, and Magnolia, but also many, many small privately-owned facilities. </p>

<p><strong><em>Can I get my Rosie II vital signs cart with a tympanic thermometer?</em></strong><br />
At your request, a side mounted optional tympanic thermometer can be added to the cart.</p>

<p><strong><em>How many BP cuffs do I receive with my Rosie II monitor?</em></strong><br />
You will receive (3) BP cuffs at no charge. One adult small, one adult medium and one adult large</p>

<p><strong><em>How many lines of information can the Rosie II monitor hold in memory?</em></strong><br />
Rosie holds up to 400 lines of vital sign information.  When her memory is full, the 401st line of information will replace the oldest line in memory, or line one.</p>

<p><strong><em>How long does the Rosie II’s battery hold a charge?</em></strong><br />
Rosie’s battery will hold a charge for 6 hours when fully charged.</p>

<p><strong><em>What kind of warranty does the Rosie II monitor come with?</em></strong><br />
If purchased, the Rosie II comes with a 5 year warranty.  If Rosie is leased or joins your staff through our Tech Pak program, she is under warranty as long as you are on either of these programs. Extension cables, hoses, power cords, BP cuffs and batteries are not included under the warranty. Oral and rectal probes as well as pulse oximeter finger sensors are under warranty for the first (90) days.  </p>

<p><strong><em>What do I without my Rosie II while she is being repaired?</em></strong><br />
