In nurse call systems that enable communication from a plurality of cordless handsets with a plurality of extension terminals carried by nurses belonging to a group, a nurse call conversion unit is provided between a nurse call control device and a private branch exchange. A call signal for a group representative call in which only an identification number for a group is given is transmitted by the nurse call conversion unit from the nurse call control device to the private branch exchange. From this call signal, the private branch exchange generates a call signal for extension terminals belonging to a group and calls the extension terminals.

1. A nurse call system comprising: a plurality of extension terminals grouped into a plurality of groups, each of the extension terminals being allocated with a terminal identification number (terminal ID) and each of the groups being allocated with a group identification number (group ID);a private branch exchange configured to call extension terminals belonging to one of the groups in response to an incoming call signal assigning said one of the groups;a plurality of slave units configured to perform telephone conversations with the extension terminals;a nurse call controller configured to receive call requests from the slave units, at least one of the call requests requesting a call to extension terminals belonging to the one of the groups, and to send a call signal corresponding to the at least one of the call requests, the call signal comprising a group ID of the one of the groups and terminal IDs of the extension terminals belonging to the one of the groups; anda nurse call conversion unit configured to provide an interface between the nurse call controller and the private branch exchange, whereinthe nurse call conversion unit is further configured to receive the call signal from the nurse call controller, to convert the call signal, into a second call signal by including the group ID into the second call signal and omitting the terminal IDs from the second call signal, andthe nurse call conversion unit is further configured to send the second call signal to the private branch exchange. 2. The nurse call system according to claim 1, wherein the nurse call conversion unit is further configured to convert the call signal to the second call signal by referencing a table describing correspondences between the group IDs, extension numbers and terminal IDs belonging to each of the groups. 3. A nurse call conversion unit comprising: at least one hardware processor configured to implement: interfacing a nurse call controller and a private branch exchange of a nurse call system;receiving a call signal from a nurse call controller, the call signal comprising a group identification number (group ID) of a group of extension terminals and terminal identification numbers (terminal IDs) of the extension terminals;converting the call signal into a second call signal by including the group ID into the second call signal and omitting the terminal IDs from the second call signal; andsending the second call signal to the private branch exchange, whereinthe private branch exchange is configured to accommodate a plurality of extension terminals, comprising the extension terminals, grouped into a plurality of groups, comprising the group, each of the plurality of extension terminals being allocated with ones of terminal identification numbers (terminal ID), comprising the terminal IDs, and each of the groups being allocated with one of a plurality of group identification numbers (group IDs) comprising the group ID,the private branch exchange is further configured to call the extension terminals corresponding to the group ID in response to the call signal,the nurse call controller is configured to accommodate a plurality of slave units configured to perform telephone conversations with the extension terminals, andthe nurse call controller is further configured to receive call requests from the slave units, at least one of the call requests requesting a call to the extension terminals of the group, and to send the call signal. 4. The nurse call conversion unit according to claim 3, wherein: the at least one hardware processor is further configured to implement: converting the call signal to the second call signal by referencing a table describing correspondences between the group IDs, extension numbers and terminal IDs belonging to each of the groups. 5. A nurse call connection method comprising: receiving, by a nurse call controller, a call request from a slave unit, the call request requesting a call to a group of extension terminals;sending, by the nurse call controller, a call signal comprising a group identification number (group ID) of the group and terminal identification numbers (terminal IDs) of the extension terminals of the group;receiving, by a nurse call conversion unit providing an interface between the nurse call controller and a private branch exchange, the call signal from the nurse call controller;converting, by the nurse call conversion unit, the call signal into a second call signal by including the group ID into the second call signal and omitting the terminal IDS from the second call signal;sending, by the nurse call conversion unit, the second call signal to the private branch exchange; andcalling, by the private branch exchange, the extension terminals of the group in response to receiving the second call signal. 6. The nurse call connection method according to claim 5, wherein the nurse call conversion unit is further configured to convert the call signal into the second call signal by referencing a table describing correspondences between the group IDs, extension numbers and terminal IDs belonging to each of the groups. 7. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program which is installed on an information processor, and configured to cause the information processor to implement a function corresponding to the nurse call conversion unit according to claim 3.
