Abstract: Hygiene management systems are provided for managing hygiene compliance. In some embodiments, the hygiene systems can include video cameras to count people entering a managed room. Responsive to each detected entry a timer can be started by the system, which is reset by activation of hygiene stations (e.g., hand washing stations or sanitizer dispensers). If the timers expire without use of the hygiene stations, the system triggers visual and/or audible alarms to remind people to use the hygiene stations.

Abstract: Environment control systems and methods are provided that can be integrated with patient administration systems (e.g., admission, discharge, & transfer systems or “ADT” systems) to implement energy saving algorithms based on the presence or absence of a patient from a given room. In some embodiments, tracking of patients by bed can enable further optimization of environmental control. In further embodiments, additional patient administration systems can be integrated to provide more specific control, and can enable configurations to manage an environment based on scheduled testing, operations, imaging, or any procedure which takes a patient out of their room.
