SYSTEM FOR DYNAMIC LOCATION-AWARE PATIENT CARE PROCESS CONTROLS AND DYNAMIC LOCATION-AWARE ASSET TRACKING

摘要

A system having a system backend having a backend processor configured to define a patient clinical team associated with a patient clinical process comprising of a series of patient clinical tasks effected within the healthcare facility, each patient clinical task with an associated patient clinical task location within the healthcare facility, a group of mobile devices communicably connected via a network to the system backend, each mobile device being associated with and configured for use by at least one care member of the patient clinical team, a low energy (LE) beacon array arranged in a predetermined relationship with and differentiating between different patient clinical task locations, and communicably connected to each of the mobile devices that is configured to resolve its proximity, from the beacon array, relative to the at least one patient clinical task location. The backend processor is configured to dynamically enhance the patient clinical team by dynamically changing in real-time a predetermined characteristic of the patient clinical team based on the resolved proximity of each mobile device associated with each care member of the patient clinical team.

1. A system for controlling a patient clinical process in a healthcare facility, the system comprising:
a system backend comprising:
a backend processor configured to define a patient clinical team associated with a patient clinical process comprising of a series of patient clinical tasks effected within the healthcare facility, each patient clinical task with an associated patient clinical task location within the healthcare facility; a group of mobile devices communicably connected via a network to the system backend, each mobile device being associated with and configured for use by at least one care member of the patient clinical team; a low energy (LE) beacon array arranged in a predetermined relationship with and differentiating between different patient clinical task locations, and communicably connected to each of the mobile devices that is configured to resolve its proximity, from the beacon array, relative to the at least one patient clinical task location; wherein the backend processor is configured to dynamically enhance the patient clinical team by dynamically changing in real-time a predetermined characteristic of the patient clinical team based on the resolved proximity of each mobile device associated with each care member of the patient clinical team.
