Abstract
An infusion system authorizes changes to operating parameters for a patient by any one of a plurality of caregivers that can be identified as being in a predetermined physical space. Individuals are detected within the space based on detecting signals from respective wireless transmitters associated with the plurality of individuals. Performance of an operation being initiated at the infusion system is authorized based on the identification of the individuals. An association between the operation and the one or more individuals detected within the physical space at a time of the operation is automatically recorded, without requiring a logon of the one or more individuals to the system.
