Abstract:

The activity notification process includes a first step of selecting an activity center on a home screen of a home station. The home screen of the home station has a plurality of selectable activity center choices, the selection thereof generating a plurality of selectable patient location options. The next step includes selecting one of the location options to send a message to an activity station of the activity center, the home station touch screen returning to its home screen with the activity center being predominantly highlighted thereon. The activity station generates an alert window providing directions to a location. The predominately highlighted activity center on the home station touch screen is deselected, only when the message has been answered, thereby returning the home screen thereon to a state that does not show the predominant highlights, the deselection providing verification that the message has been answered. The activity center may be disabled until the required activity is completed. The activity notification system is particularly adapted for use in a physician or dental office.
