What are reminders?

When you receive a call that can't be addressed immediately, you
can set a call reminder, with or without answering the call. Setting a
reminder moves the call from the Call screen to the Reminders
screen, and sets a timer. If the timer elapses before the call is
cleared, the nurse call is regenerated. When the timer elapses, you
can place the call on reminder again, if necessary, which starts the
cycle over.
Figure 16: Reminder list
Calls can continue to cycle between the Reminder screen and the
Call screen until they are cleared.
Normal priority calls can be cleared from a staff console or
annunciator. Once a normal priority call has a reminder set on it,
however, it cannot be cleared by an audio connection.
How quickly a reminder is recalled to the Call screen depends on its
call priority. By default, normal priority calls are recalled to the Call
screen after 3 minutes, and higher priority calls are recalled after 1
minute. These times are configurable, though. For instructions on
changing reminder recall times, see the installation manual
provided with your Telligence system 3101010 R1.0 Telligence
Patient-Staff Communications System Installation Manual.
