  • Patent number: 11699528
    Abstract: Automatically gathering and processing data relating to risk of patient falls. The data is analyzed to determine a level of risk each patient has for falling. Patient risk for falls is stratified and protocols are implemented to mitigate that risk. The system communicates instructions and alerts to caregivers to complete tasks or provide aid to patients. Updates to patient medical information and updates to best practices in fall risk management result in updates to patient risk stratifications. In turn, tasks and alerts are updated to reflect updates to patient risk stratifications.

  • Publication number: 20220208318
    Abstract: A mobility management system receives movement data from sensors that detect movements of a patient resting in a patient support apparatus and movement data from one or more mobility detection devices that detect movement of the patient when the patient exits the patient support apparatus. The system determines a mobility status based on at least the movement data received from the patient support apparatus and the one or more mobility detection devices, and adjusts a care protocol for the patient based on the mobility status.
