Check-in Pull Cord
A Check-in Pull Cord enables the staff or patient to push a green button to check-in.
Pressing the green button indicates to the system that the patient has checked in or been
visited by staff. The type of check-in depends on how your Pull Cord is configured
(refer to the Series 6.0 Software Administrator Guide).
Check-in types
• Patient Check In—A patient pushes the button to notify the staff that he/she is
awake and does not require assistance.
• Staff Check In—A staff member pushes the check-in button once they have
checked on a patient.
• Staff Care Complete—A staff member pushes the check-in button in response to
an Assistance Required alarm once the patient has been checked on and the
alarming device is reset. If JCAHO is enforced, this will clear the White alarm
from the Client computer
