Abstract

Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for generating an automatically updating graphical user interface for capacity management data. In some embodiments, a system is disclosed, comprising at least one processor configured to receive a bed assignment request. The bed assignment request may include an individual identifier and a bed identifier. The one or more processors may receive, based on a query made in response to the received bed assignment request, attribute data corresponding to the identifier. The one or more processors may also format information from the attribute data, and provide instructions for generating and updating a graphical user interface.

Claims (62)

1. A computerized system for generating a graphical user interface of real-time capacity management information, the system comprising:

at least one processor; and

a storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to automatically update the graphical user interface of a station display, by:

receiving, at the at least one processor from a network, a bed assignment request for a patient, the bed assignment request including an individual identifier and a bed identifier;

generating a staff assignment record based on the bed assignment request, the staff assignment record including an employee identifier;

receiving, at the at least one processor from the network, based on a query made in response to the received bed assignment request, attribute data corresponding to the individual identifier;

formatting information from the attribute data for display,

wherein formatting information from the attribute data for display comprises:

responsive to a determination that the graphical user interface corresponds to a private display:

transmitting display instructions to the graphical user interface including the employee identifier and at least one of the individual identifier and the bed identifier;

providing a first alert to a user if the requested bed has already been assigned to a separate patient with a same name as that of the patient; and

providing a second alert to the user if the patient is assigned to a facility where a separate patient with the same name has already been assigned; and

responsive to a determination that the graphical user interface corresponds to a public display;

identifying confidential information in the attribute data;

determining generic equivalents for the confidential information; and

updating the formatted information to remove the confidential information and include the generic equivalents on the public display; and

transmitting display instructions to generate an updated graphical user interface on the station display based on the formatted information.

2. The computerized system of claim 1 , wherein identifying confidential information comprises querying an information privacy rules database.

3. The computerized system of claim 1 , wherein the staff assignment record is further based on at least one of an individual condition, staff skills, individual-staff assignment history, staff availability, legal restrictions, and facility rules.

4. The computerized system of claim 1 , further comprising:

responsive to identifying a staff shift change time occurring within a predefined period of time, generating a new staff assignment record; and

transmitting display instructions to animate a display of the new staff assignment record at the graphical user interface for a predefined time period before and after the staff shift change time.

5. A computerized method for generating a graphical user interface of real-time capacity management data, comprising:

receiving, by at least one processor from a network, a bed assignment request for a patient, the bed assignment request including an individual identifier and a bed identifier;

generating a staff assignment record based on the bed assignment request, the staff assignment record including an employee identifier;

receiving, at the at least one processor from the network, based on a query made in response to the received bed assignment request, attribute data corresponding to the individual identifier;

formatting information from the attribute data for display,

wherein formatting information from the attribute data for display comprises:

responsive to a determination that the graphical user interface corresponds to a private display:

transmitting display instructions to the graphical user interface including the employee identifier and at least one of the individual identifier and the bed identifier;

providing a first alert to a user if the requested bed has already been assigned to a separate patient with a same name as that of the patient; and

providing a second alert to the user if the patient is assigned to a facility where a separate patient with the same name has already been assigned; and

responsive to a determination that the graphical user interface corresponds to a public display:

identifying confidential information in the attribute data;

determining generic equivalents for the confidential information; and

updating the formatted information to remove the confidential information and include the generic equivalents on the public display; and

transmitting display instructions to generate an updated graphical user interface on the station display based on the formatted information.

6. The computerized method of claim 5 , wherein identifying confidential information comprises querying an information privacy rules database.

7. The computerized method of claim 5 , wherein the staff assignment record is further based on at least one of an individual condition, staff skills, individual-staff assignment history, staff availability, legal restrictions, and facility rules.

8. The computerized method of claim 5 , further comprising:

responsive to identifying a staff shift change time occurring within a predefined period of time, generating a new staff assignment record; and

transmitting display instructions to animate a display of the new staff assignment record at the graphical user interface for a predefined time period before and after the staff shift change time.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform a method for generating a graphical user interface of real-time capacity management data, comprising:

receiving, from a network, a bed assignment request for a patient, the bed assignment request including an individual identifier and a bed identifier;

generating a staff assignment record based on the bed assignment request, the staff assignment record including an employee identifier;

receiving, from the network, based on a query made in response to the received bed assignment request, attribute data corresponding to the individual identifier;

formatting information from the attribute data for display,

wherein formatting information from the attribute data for display comprises:

responsive to a determination that the graphical user interface corresponds to a private display:

transmitting display instructions to the graphical user interface including the employee identifier and at least one of the individual identifier and the bed identifier;

providing a first alert to a user if the requested bed has already been assigned to a separate patient with a same name as that of the patient; and

providing a second alert to the user if the patient is assigned to a facility where a separate patient with the same name has already been assigned; and

responsive to a determination that the graphical user interface corresponds to a public display:

identifying confidential information in the attribute data;

determining generic equivalents for the confidential information; and

updating the formatted information to remove the confidential information and include the generic equivalents on the public display; and

transmitting display instructions to generate an updated graphical user interface on the station display based on the formatted information.

10. The computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein identifying confidential information comprises querying an information privacy rules database.

11. The computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the staff assignment record is further based on at least one of an individual condition, staff skills, individual-staff assignment history, staff availability, legal restrictions, and facility rules.

12. The computer-readable medium of claim 9 , further comprising:

responsive to identifying a staff shift change time occurring within a predefined period of time, generating a new staff assignment record; and

transmitting display instructions to animate a display of the new staff assignment record at the graphical user interface for a predefined time period before and after the staff shift change time.
