Abstract
A real-time method and system are provided for monitoring hygiene compliance within a tracking environment. Auto-ID personnel tags are associated with personnel whose hygiene compliance is desired to track locations of the personnel within the environment. A first transceiver is associated with a handwashing dispenser unit. A second transceiver is associated with an entrance/exit of a patient location area. The method includes associating a first timer with the first transceiver that starts in response to activation of the dispenser. A second timer is associated with the second transceiver and starts in response to detection of personnel entering/exiting the patient location area. Hygiene-compliance is monitored based on these transceivers monitoring handwashing activity and entering/exiting the patient location area by the personnel.
