Patient Turn

Patient Turn is used to document change of the patient’s positioning in bed and to

produce an alert if the interval set for changing the position has been exceeded (timer

expired). The Patient Turn alert is also disabled by default.

Setting the Patient Turn Interval

The turn interval is referred to as "q". For instance if you would like the system to

generate an alert as a reminder to turn the patient every 2 hours, set q to q2.

To change the time interval between the turn reminders touch the q button in the Patient

Turn box (Figure 28) in the Home screen (Figure 8). Using the arrows, choose the

relevant q number (number of hours). After 3 sec the arrows will disappear and the

change will be applied.
