Abstract
Methods and apparatus for improving the provision of healthcare via automated determination of a location of persons and equipment relative to each other and to conditions quantified via automated sensors. The present invention provides apparatus and methods for wireless designation of a position of health care providers and equipment relative to each other based upon wireless communications amongst multiple wireless transceivers combined with ongoing monitoring of conditions present in a healthcare facility. A user interface may provide a pictorial view of positions of all or some the healthcare providers and equipment and condition quantifying sensors.
