Abstract
In an environment where it is beneficial for chronic health care patients to receive individualized attention on a daily basis, a health care network (10) is provided. Each patient receives a user interface device (12) such as a set top box for accessing the network (10). Based on the patient's health care history, a nurse or other health care professional interfaces with a server (22) and constructs a care plan specific to that patient by filling out appropriate sections of a care plan template. An itinerary arrangement processor (32) organizes content gleaned from the patient's care plan and constructs a serially arranged itinerary for the patient to experience each day. The patient logs on to the network (10) and is immediately presented with the day's itinerary, without having to navigate any menus. Resultantly, the patient will have an easier experience, and will not miss any material.
