Goodbye, pagers — text messaging is here!

14 Dec 2025

No more dead zones



By: Bobby Gray, System Director of Business Intelligence, Clinical Engineering and IT Operations

Employed and independent providers, we’re excited to offer a new way for you to receive pages — directly to your cell phone via text message!

With the launch of our “SH-Employee” Wi-Fi, you’ll now have reliable service throughout the Salem Hospital campus, making it easier than ever to stay connected. No more worrying about dead zones or carrying an extra device.

Bonus: All text pages will now come from the same phone number, so you can save it as a contact favorite in your phone for quick recognition.

Ready to make the switch?

Click here to sign up and update your contact information. Once you're set up, you’ll receive instructions on how to return your physical pager. Some pagers will be ineligible for this new service.

Let’s modernize how we communicate — one page at a time.
