Claim 16:
17. A communication device for performing health care actions in respect of multiple patients undergoing health care treatment and located in multiple patient care areas using a management system and said communication device, said communication device comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory coupled to the at least one processor for storing data;, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
(i) enable at least one health care personnel to verify patient identity of a patient against an image of the patient displayed on the communication device preparatory to the at least one health care personnel administering at least one health care action to the patient whose image is displayed on the communication device;
(ii) receive by the communication device identity data input by the at least one health care personnel regarding verification of patient identity against the image of the patient via a user-interface of the communication device;
(iii) receive by the communication device input data input by the at least one health care personnel of the patient via a user-interface of the communication device;
(iv) cause the communication device to send the identity data and the input data to a management system, wherein said management system comprises a management application, a management system processor, a first database storing first rules for how patients with known sets of conditions are to be cared for, a second database storing second rules for how the input data are to be used, and a third database storing third rules relating to limitations and operating procedures for the at least one health care personnel, said management system processor is configured to cause the management application to cross-reference the identity data and input data with the first rules, second rules and third rules; update and prioritize actions to be performed in respect of the given patient by the at least one health care personnel; and generate an action data for the given patient, wherein said action data is based at least in part on (a) the identity data, (b) the input data, and (c) at least one of the first rules, the second rules, and the third rules; and send said action data from the management system to the communication device;
(v) receive said action data; and
(vi) display information on a user-interface based at least on the received action data,
wherein said action data requires at least one health care action to be performed by said at least one health care personnel in respect of the given patient being one of the multiple patients located in multiple patient care areas;
wherein said at least one health care action is an action of care directly performed on the body of the given patient.
