Arrival
Beth runs the admission video visit on the whiteboard camera, with captions, then posts the summary to the chart.
A sitter in a chair watches one room. Guardian gives that sitter 12, on one screen, on the camera already in the room. AI flags a bed exit before it becomes a fall, and the sitter talks the patient back by name while help is paged. The same console is your virtual nursing platform: admission and discharge teaching over the room screen, with the summary posted to the chart.
Follow Walt, 78, through four days on 6 North. Every moment below plays on the live Guardian consoles above. Switch between the virtual nurse and the eSitter with the tabs.
Beth runs the admission video visit on the whiteboard camera, with captions, then posts the summary to the chart.
The bed exit takes the wall over. Ana presses talk, calls Walt by name and pages James. No fall, logged.
The code takes the screen over and the Room 612 video pops up on its own, with the code record beside it.
Walt stays on the wall, with a privacy pause while he is out of bed with staff.
The bed exit takes Beth’s screen over, and the 612 video opens on its own. Logged and posted.
Beth’s discharge teaching call with teach back, two videos sent to the TV, summary posted to the chart.
One virtual nursing platform for the people in the virtual care hub, and one event chain for everyone on the floor.
When Guardian flags a room, the door, the unit board and the right phones all know at once.
What Guardian reads, what it writes back and what it runs on.
Virtual sitter software lets one trained observer watch several patient rooms over live video and speak into a room the moment a patient at risk starts to get up. Guardian, from HCI ONE, puts 12 rooms on one screen, flags sitting up and bed exit with AI, and pages the aide while the sitter talks the patient back by name.
12 rooms per screen, with no scrolling. Each tile shows the reason for the watch, the fall risk and the bed exit status, and an alarm takes over the screen when a patient moves.
A virtual nursing platform lets an experienced nurse run admissions, discharge teaching and virtual rounds over video, so the floor team stays at the bedside. In Guardian the virtual nurse works through the room screen with captions and a teach back checklist, and every call ends with a transcript and a summary the nurse can post to the chart. In a Code Blue, the room video opens on its own beside the code record.
No. Guardian runs on the camera in the room's whiteboard or TV, so there is no cart to roll in, charge or wipe down.
Guardian takes in Stryker smart bed exit alarms, nurse call and code events, and watch orders from Epic, MEDITECH or Oracle Health over HL7 v2. It sends bed exit alerts to the aide's phone, lights up the door sign and the unit board, and posts call summaries to the chart.
Video is a live view with no recording by default, and an in room light turns on whenever a feed is viewed. Access is role based, every view is audited, and Guardian runs on the hospital's own servers.
Guardian reads the same events as the door sign, the TV, the unit board and the nurse’s phone, so they never disagree.
Thirty minutes, real software. We walk the eSitter wall, the virtual nurse console and the escalation chain on sample feeds.
