What Medical Observer gives you
Both samples were made by Medical Observer's own software from an invented day. Nothing in them came from a real clinic, patient or staff member.
The End of Day Report — front desk
- The four figures. How long it listened, how many conversations it heard, how much was speech, and other sounds such as doors and phones.
- The day, in order. Each conversation's time, whether it was work or casual, and one line on what it was about — and the stretches when nothing was heard, so the quiet hours show too.
- The summaries are Medical Observer's own. On a clinic's device, a small AI model on the device writes them; nothing is sent to a cloud service to do it. For this sample the same model ran on one of our computers. They are short and not always right: in this sample the 8:37 AM summary stops mid-sentence, and the 9:02 AM one calls a check-in casual. We show them as the model wrote them. On your own device you can check any summary against what was said.
- Activity by hour. When the desk was busiest.
- Coverage. How much of the day it wrote up.
- Where it lives. In the report's own words: "This report stays on this device: it is never emailed or sent off-site."
Room watch — a patient room
In a patient room, Medical Observer watches and listens for four things only: a possible fall, a person who goes low and stays there, a call for help and a patient who may have left the room. It writes down nothing that is said and keeps no picture. That is why this sample is a drawing and not a photograph, not even a blurred one: a real device has no picture to show. Its camera finds people in each frame in memory and then discards the frame.
- A visit, or a patient sitting up, raises no alert.
- Out with staff: one tap pauses the "may have left the room" alert.
- Possible fall: a person goes from standing to low within seconds, with a thud, or a thud is followed within seconds by a groan, a cry or a call for help.
- Check on the patient: the camera alone sees a person go from upright to low and stay low for a minute, for a fall that makes no thud.
- May have left the room: nobody in view for 2 minutes while the patient is marked in the room. The clinic sets the time.
- Call for help: words such as "help me" or "I can't get up," or a scream or a shout. Words are checked for that and then dropped, never written down.
- Where an alert goes: the device's own screen, and the clinic's own email if the clinic sets one up. Never through our servers.
Room watch is an assistive aid for staff. It is not a medical alarm, and it does not replace nurse-call systems, bed alarms or rounding.
