Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-storage medium are provided for managing patient alerts using a mobile device. A mobile device associated with a patient caregiver receives a critical alert related to the patient, and the alert is presented on the mobile device. The alert includes important contextual information that enables the caregiver to make a quick assessment of how to effectively address the alert. The alert includes options for accepting the alert or rejecting the alert. Acceptance of the alert enables the caregiver to communicate the alert to selected caregivers that can assist in managing the alert. Rejecting the alert causes the alert to be automatically communicated to additional caregivers associated with patient.

Abstract: Subject matter described herein is related to assigning a healthcare clinician to provide care to a patient. For example, a GUI is provided that includes contextual information relevant to the assignment and that allows a user to electronically create the assignment. Relevant information includes a list of clinicians, a list of patients, and an estimate of the amount of resources required to provide care to a patient. In addition, this disclosure describes tracking the status of a healthcare clinician, such as primary provider, secondary provider, and on-break. Status might be tracked by capturing an image of a display board, which supports clinician barcodes that are movable to desired locations within a depiction of a healthcare facility (e.g., floor plan laid out using barcodes).

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods, systems, and computer-readable media for routing healthcare information based on a role associated with a user. Information may not always need to go to a specific person but, rather, may need to be communicated to a role. A user may be associated with a given role based on manually claiming the role, being assigned to a role, or being automatically scheduled into a role. Additionally, information may be communicated using user contact preferences specifying the modality by which the user is to be contacted under various circumstances. Further, the information may be re-directed if a rejection (or lack of response) is received by an initial recipient.

Abstract: Systems, methods, computer-readable media, and graphical user interfaces for automatically populating a dashboard with aggregate data are provided. In embodiments, a dashboard associated with a plurality of rooms in a hospital unit is displayed on a touchscreen monitor. Unit data associated with the plurality of rooms including unit description, current shift, charge nurse, clinician names, and clinician numbers is received. Patient data associated with a patient in each of the plurality of rooms is received. The patient data includes location, name, sex, age, and length of stay. The dashboard is automatically populated in real-time with the unit data and the patient data. One or more alerts associated with a patient in one of the plurality of rooms are received. One or more visual cues associated with one or more alerts are displayed on the dashboard.

Abstract: Subject matter described herein is related to estimating a quantity of resources that are consumed or expended when providing care to a patient. When estimating the quantity, non-clinical information might be used to draw various inferences. For example, information provided by a real-time location system might provide insight (e.g., duration, frequency, etc.) into instances in which a healthcare clinician visits a patient's room. In another example, information provided by a medical-device alarm system might provide insight into alarms that are triggered by equipment that monitors and/or provides assistance to a patient.
