Alerts & Responses

Use this workflow when the instructor needs to send an alert to a patient and confirm the response from the Nurse Station dashboard.

Send A Call Bell Alert

This example sends a Call Bell Alert to Patient 1. The same basic workflow applies when sending other alert types to other patients.

Open Alerts

On the Instructor Tablet, tap Alerts to open the alert dialog.

Select Alert Type And Patient

Set Alert Type to Call Bell Alert and choose the target patient. In this example, Patient stays set to P1.

When the Done button becomes active, tap Done to send the alert.

Confirm The Response Log

After the alert is accepted or declined, return to the Instructor Tablet and confirm the alert activity appears in the event log.

  • Confirm the alert appears on the Nurse Station dashboard before continuing the scenario.
