An improved health-care professional alert system is disclosed. The system is compatible with existing health-care professional call systems having a patient operable call unit; a cord connecting the unit to a receptacle; a detector determining when the patient call unit is disconnected from the receptacle; and an activator that operates an alarm signal upon detection of a patient-unit disconnect. The invention comprises an insert mateable with the existing receptacle, the insert being connected by a cord to a patient's body or gown. In the preferred embodiment, the cord is connected to a patient's body by a spring operated clip.
