Abstract
Methods, systems, computer program products, and data structures are used for tracking communicable pathogens in a healthcare facility. An individual is digitally tagged as been at risk for spreading communicable pathogens upon coming into contact with another individually that is digitally tagged as been at risk for spreading communicable pathogens. Digitally tagged individuals can be patients that are diagnosed with a communicable disease, individuals that come into contact with patients diagnosed with a communicable disease, and individuals that come into contact with other individuals (e.g., that through a chain of one or more other contacts) have been in contact with patients diagnosed with a communicable disease. Staff members and visitors digitally tagged through contact can perform appropriate hygiene procedures to remove their digitally tagged status. A system sensor can be used to track individual contacts and activation of hygiene equipment.
