Patent number: 8400309Abstract: A system and method of monitoring compliance with a hygiene protocol is disclosed. The movement of person within or otherwise associated with a facility may be tracked and hygiene requirements may be imposed based on the movement. In monitoring hygiene compliance, a number of hygiene levels may be defined that are associated with difference hygiene requirements. A hygiene level may be associated with an individual and that level may be raised or lowered based on hygiene related activity associated with the individual. An individual's hygiene level and/or his compliance with multi-level hygiene requirements may be tracked through the use of monitored hygiene stations and/or location tracking stations.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2009Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Resurgent Health & Medical, LLCInventors: James Glenn, Paul R. Barnhill, Timothy Prodanovich, Thomas M. Johannsen, Stephan Jerome Heim, Douglas W. Swartz

Patent number: 8110047Abstract: A system is provided for providing automated washing and verifying compliance of use. The system provides for identifying individual users of one or more cleaning stations through various technologies, such as RFID. Individual's use of cleaning stations is monitored to determine compliance with hand-washing requirements. A compliance report may be generated based on data associated with one or more individuals' use of the cleaning station(s). Educational and/or entertainment content may be displayed to the user when he or she is using the cleaning station. Additionally, the cleaning station may identify containers having authorized consumables such as soap or disinfectant.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2008Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignee: Resurgent Health & Medical, LLCInventors: James Glenn, Paul R.

Publication number: 20110161913Abstract: A framework (referred to herein as Application Integration Architecture, or AIA) that formalizes and orchestrates activities in an SOA development lifecycle. In one set of embodiments, AIA can capture development-related information in a shared data store and cause the information to flow in an automated or semi-automated manner from one lifecycle phase to the next as the lifecycle progresses. This information flow can, in turn, facilitate automations at each lifecycle phase for the responsible stakeholders (e.g., solution architects, developers, installation developers, etc.), thereby enforcing SOA best practices, enhancing development productivity, and ensuring the quality of the final SOA deliverables.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2010Publication date: June 30, 2011Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Annaji Garimella, Ravindran Sankaran, Nan Xie, Thirupathi Reddy Annadi, Mark James Glenn Craig, Arvind Srinivasamoorthy, Purushotham Kola

Publication number: 20100326472Abstract: A system is provided for providing automated washing and verifying compliance of use. The system provides for identifying individual users of one or more cleaning stations through various technologies, such as RFID. Individual's use of cleaning stations is monitored to determine compliance with hand-washing requirements. A compliance report may be generated based on data associated with one or more individuals' use of the cleaning station(s). Educational and/or entertainment content may be displayed to the user when he or she is using the cleaning station. Additionally, the cleaning station may identify containers having authorized consumables such as soap or disinfectant. Optional automated collection and forwarding of hygiene compliance information is performed to provide compliance monitors, such as a regulatory agency, with such information.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2010Publication date: December 30, 2010Applicant: RESURGENT HEALTH & MEDICAL, LLCInventors: James Glenn, Douglas W.

Publication number: 20100307607Abstract: A reversing valve is provided having a generally cylindrical valve housing and a rotatable valve body positioned within at least partially within the housing, the valve body has a first fluid pathway and a second fluid pathway, each fluid pathway generally shaped as a “y” such that there are six openings into the body. A motor rotates the body to align the fluid pathways of the body with four openings in the housing in a first position and rotates the body 180 degrees to a second position aligning the fluid pathways of the body with four openings in the housing in a manner allowing reverse flow through the valve. At least one opening of each fluid pathway is blocked by the housing when the body is in either the first or second position.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2010Publication date: December 9, 2010Inventor: JAMES GLENN ARY
