CRIS is a self-contained system which operates independently from nurse call equipment, or as a tightly integrated solution. CRIS can interface with a range of manufacturers’ systems, or as an integral part of the Vitalcare Daisy nurse call network.
The system monitors residents’ ‘behavioural’ profiles and alarms when the profile is breached. This may include activity or inactivity outside normal parameters. An infinite number of profiles can be programmed and 4 of these can be selected at the door panel. CRIS is programmed wirelessly or via Vitalcare’s network controller.
Alarms are indicated on the exterior over-door light, sent to pagers or smartphones, displayed on facility annunciators or reported on tablet or web browsers.
CRIS consists of:
Room controller module – electronic command module typically installed in the ceiling
Door panel – used to activate or suspend operation and indicates the resident’s current location in the room
Over-door light indicator – visual indication if profiles are breached
Lighting controller – controls room, bathroom and reading lamps in response to behaviour and programming
Door switch – activates an alarm if the door is opened
- Exception reporting — intelligent profiling of activity
- Behaviour recording — activity reporting to provide a benchmark for exception reporting
- Ushering — controlling the sequence of ceiling and reading lights ‘ushers’ resident from bed to bathroom and back
- Configurable profiles— unlimited custom profiles plus 3 presets
- Check resident´s activity without entering the room – bed, chair, shower, toilet, activity
