Abstract

A patient notification and response system comprises a communications network, a server, a workstation, and a remote motion device. The server is operatively connected to the communications network and comprises a database and a script generator. The database comprises script programs, where each script program is associated with a patient notification message. The script generator is configured to generate a script having one or more commands based on the script programs. The workstation is operatively connected to the communications network and displays a user interface configured to allow a first user to select a selected script program from the database on the server. The remote motion device operatively connected to the communications network, where the remote motion device is in the possession of a second user associated with a patient and comprises a speaker, a microphone, a motion system, and a controller. Based on the script commands of the selected script program, the controller causes the speaker to generate first audible signals perceivable by the second user, activates the motion system to cause movement of the remote motion device perceivable by the second user, and transmits to the first user responses generated based on second audible signals made by the second user in response to at least one of the first audible signals and the movement of the remote motion device.
