Health care sanitation monitoring system

Abstract:

A medical sanitation device may include a detector for detecting the physical presence of a clinician token within a detection area, in the vicinity of the medical sanitation device. The clinician token may be indicative of the identity of a clinician. The medical sanitation device also includes a sanitation module configured to be used by the clinician to perform a sanitation task. Detection of a clinician in proximity to the medical sanitation device may be used to at least partially control access to, or operation of, a medical patient monitoring device.
