Abstract: A scheduling and time management system and method including a central processing assembly, remote informational modules placed at critical locations within a facility, and portable data input modules via which users may interact with the system. The system may be entirely self-contained, or may interact with and be implemented in addition to an organization's existing computing infrastructure. Illumination of lamps and/or voice prompts from a speaker mounted on the informational modules indicate system status and may be used to confidentially relay information between staff members or provide system-wide information as desired.
