Case Study: Wentworth-Douglass Hospital achieves greater patient privacy and a quieter environment with Biamp QtPro sound masking

Wentworth-Douglass Hospital expands sound masking across 78,000 square feet with Biamp

Wentworth-Douglass Hospital faced a challenge with distracting noise and a lack of acoustic privacy in the open-plan environment of its Dover Family Practice. Confidential patient conversations at the registration desks could be easily overheard in the waiting areas, creating a disruptive atmosphere. To address this, the hospital engaged Biamp to implement its QtPro sound masking solution.

Biamp's solution utilized Qt 600 processors and discreet Qt Emitters to evenly distribute a comfortable background sound. This effectively masked confidential conversations and reduced the intrusion of office noise. The results were overwhelmingly positive, leading to a more peaceful and private environment for both patients and staff. Due to the pilot's success, Wentworth-Douglass expanded the Biamp system throughout all ten physician group practices in its professional center.
