Barcode Scanning

For Streamlined Staff and Device Assignment

Provider 790 supports barcode scanners for one-scan operation.

Using a barcode scanner, staff can update their status (on/off duty, on break), assign their wireless device(s) for their shift (wireless phone, real-time locating tag, pocket pager), and review their current assigned patients by room and bed.

The simple click and scan operations streamlines the on/off duty process at shift change and eliminates potential errors when using a keyboard for on/off duty operations.

Reduced Congestion at the Nursing Station – by using a barcode scanner on any networked computer, staff don’t need to congregate at the nursing station to go on duty and assign their wireless device

Automatic Rollover of Patient Calls – when staff are “off duty” or “on break”, calls from their patients rollover to the other caregiver’s phone or pocket pager so patient calls are addressed as quickly as possible

One-Click Review of Assigned Patients – to review their current assigned patients, caregivers simply scan their ID badge barcode

Simple Wireless Device Assignment – caregivers can assign themselves a wireless phone, pocket pager, and/or RTLS tag by simply scanning the barcode of the device in their possession
