Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for improving patient safety using virtual observation. A falls risk assessment and a patient safety risk assessment are initially provided within an electronic health record of a patient. A clinician is prompted at a clinician device to provide input to the falls risk assessment and the patient safety risk assessment for the patient. Based on the input, a safety assessment score is determined for the patient. The safety assessment score is provided to the clinician via the clinician device and the clinician is prompted to initiate an order to place a camera in the room of the patient. Based on the order, a virtual sitter may be assigned to the patient to monitor the camera.
