Abstract
A system for monitoring residents of a health care facility including a plurality of tamper-resistant resident monitoring devices, each of the devices being uniquely associated with a resident of the facility, a multiplicity of device detectors operative to communicate with the monitoring devices and a computer subsystem operative to communicate with the plurality of tamper-resistant resident monitoring devices via the multiplicity of device detectors, and to thereby monitor the residents of the facility.
Claims49
A system for monitoring residents of a health care facility comprising:
- a plurality of tamper-resistant resident monitoring devices, each of said devices being uniquely associated with a resident of said facility;
- a multiplicity of device detectors operative to communicate with said monitoring devices;
- and
- a computer subsystem operative to communicate with said plurality of tamper-resistant resident monitoring devices via said multiplicity of device detectors, and to thereby monitor said residents of said facility.
A method for uniquely registering a resident of a health care facility comprising:
- designating a tamper-resistant resident monitoring device to be associated with said resident;
- employing said device to send a first registration signal to a resident registration system;
- responsive to receiving said first registration signal, ascertaining that said device is not associated with a resident other than said resident;
- employing said resident registration system to associate said device with said resident;
- and
- employing said device to send a second registration signal to said resident registration system.
A method for monitoring residents of a health care facility comprising:
- uniquely associating each of a plurality of tamper-resistant resident monitoring devices with a different resident of said facility;
- providing a multiplicity of device detectors operative to communicate with said monitoring devices;
- and
- communicating with said plurality of tamper-resistant resident monitoring devices via said multiplicity of device detectors, thereby monitoring said residents of said facility.
