    摘要: A caregiver shift change system and method for a healthcare facility includes a patient bed in a patient room and a high-accuracy locating system that includes locating tags. A first tag is coupled to a first caregiver and a second tag is coupled to a second caregiver. The high-accuracy locating system further has a number of transceivers within the healthcare facility to receive tag data from the tags. The high-accuracy locating system also includes a computer coupled to the transceivers to receive the tag data and to process the tag data to determine a location of each tag within the healthcare facility. The caregiver shift change system and method also includes a server that determines whether a successful caregiver shift change has occurred based on locations of the first and second tags being, for a predetermined period of time, within a threshold proximity of each other and within a zone defined around the patient support apparatus in the patient room.

    摘要: Technologies for location-based automated assignment of staff members of a healthcare facility include a plurality of proximity sensing devices communicatively coupled to a computer. The proximity sensing devices are each configured to detect a portable transceiver device carried by and associated with a particular staff member of the healthcare facility, as well as transmit location information to the computer. The computer is configured to receive the location information and determine whether to assign the staff member to a location of the staff member (i.e., the location of the proximity sensing device that detected the portable transceiver device). The computer is further configured to assign the staff member to the location of the staff member, as identified in the location information, based on a determination that the amount of time the staff member is detected in the location exceeds the duration threshold. Other embodiments are described herein.
