Patient Safety Using Virtual Observation

A system having one or more processors configured to facilitate a plurality of operations, the operations comprising:

• determining based on a machine-learning electronic model whether to present a falls risk assessment (a) on a clinician device, (b) for clinical input comprising falls-risk assessment information (c) in order to include the falls-risk assessment information as an update in an electronic health record (EHR) of a patient,
• wherein:
• the machine-learning electronic model is trained by inputting, to the machine-learning electronic model, information corresponding to instances of medical information indicating patient assignment to a virtual sitter, and
• the determining comprises applying, to the trained machine-learning electronic model, an instance of medical information associated with the patient;
• after determining that the falls risk assessment is to be presented on the clinician device, causing presentation of a prompt at the clinician device for the clinical input comprising the falls-risk assessment information;
• based on the clinical input:
• (i) storing the falls-risk assessment information for the patient to the EHR;
• and
• (ii) initiating generation of an order to assign processor based virtual sitter technology,
• wherein the order is associated with activation of a processor coupled camera in a patient room, and wherein a processor based virtual sitter device is configured to electronically monitor electronic signal information associated with the camera from a location remote to the camera and electronically communicate an update associated with falls assessment information corresponding to the patient based on the monitoring;
• subsequent to assigning the virtual sitter technology, electronically receiving the update for the patient from the virtual sitter device, the update corresponding to the information and to data associated with operation of the camera after the assignment of the virtual sitter technology;
• and
• in response at least to receiving the update for the patient from the virtual sitter device:
• determining via the one or more processors to continue the virtual sitter technology.
