AI Health Alerts – Smarter, Safer Medication Administration

To enhance medication safety and clinical decision-making, Curenta introduces AI-Powered Health Alerts — a dynamic, configurable system that prompts for vital signs or clinical checks before medication administration when required. This ensures nurses are supported with real-time guidance, while maintaining full flexibility for overrides and documentation.

🧠 How It Works:

  • A new “Enable Health Alert” toggle is added to the [Add Medication] and [Edit Medication] screens.

  • When enabled, staff can define:

    • Which vital(s) to check (e.g., blood pressure, glucose).

    • Safe thresholds (e.g., SBP > 100).

    • Alert type:

      • 🔴 Hard Stop – Blocks med pass without override.

      • 🟡 Soft Warning – Advises caution but allows administration.

💊 During Med Pass:

  • Medications with active Health Alerts will prompt the user to enter the relevant vital(s).

  • The system displays a real-time safety message:

    • ✅ Within range → proceed.

    • ⚠️ Borderline → warning.

    • ❌ Out of range → block with option to override.

  • Overrides require documentation and are fully logged.

🧠 AI Guidance for Medications Without Alerts:

  • For medications without pre-configured alerts, Curenta’s AI may prompt:
    “This medication may require a BP check. Would you like to enter vitals?”

  • AI uses:

    • Medication class

    • Resident history (e.g., hypotension)

    • Similar past alerts

  • Users can choose to enter vitals or dismiss the prompt.

📋 Vital Checks May Include:

  • Vitals: Blood Pressure, Glucose, Pulse, SpO2, Temperature, Respiratory Rate

  • Clinical Observations: Pain scale, mental status, bleeding, infection signs

  • Lab Values: INR, Potassium, Renal function

  • Contextual Checks: NPO status, recent procedures, fall risk, weight

📈 What’s Logged:

  • Vital entered

  • Alert triggered (if any)

  • Action taken (administered, held, overridden)

  • User note (required for overrides)

  • Timestamp + MAR entry

With AI Health Alerts, Curenta ensures the right medication is administered at the right time — safely, accurately, and with clinical context.
