System Description
teleCARE IP
10 Resident Check-In
10.1 General
teleCARE IP with Resident Check-In functionality is intended for use in nursing homes and in assisted
living facilities.
The resident check-in functionality requires the resident to do a certain activity in the emergency call
system, during a predefined time window. When the resident has not done such activity, the resident
is not checked-in. Staff can view and print a list of not-checked-in residents for further follow-up. Not-
checked-in residents can be reported automatically on room displays and portables.
10.2 Intended use of resident check-in
The intended use for resident check-in is to present an overview of residents being present in the
facility, who did not check-in.
10.3 Medical device
Resident check-in is not a medical device.
10.4 Principle of Resident Check-In
Residents are registered at locations. Certain wired as well as certain wireless devices are connected to
those locations.
The resident check-in functionality works by registering certain triggers generated by the specific
devices. The triggers are then filtered by a time window. Only triggers within the time window are
considered. Another filter is the absence registration of the residents. Residents without any registered
trigger or absence registration are listed as not checked-in. Staff can view a list of these residents and
take action. Also the system can be configured for automatic sending of calls to display devices such
as portables, room displays and text displays.
