Monitors must be assigned to these Care Groups at the Information Center. There is a third care group
which can be assigned locally at the bedside. This is the My Central care group which includes all beds
(up to 16) from the Information Center your bed is connected to. This care group setting is typically
used in facilities with only one Information center. The selection of beds is automatic and cannot be
changed.
The functions available with Care Groups depend on the Information Center revision your monitors
are connected to. See your Information Center Instructions for Use for further details.
Understanding the Care Group Overview Bar
The Care Group monitors’ status is shown in symbol form in the Care Group overview bar. Flashing
symbols indicate active alarms, symbols that are not flashing indicate alarms that have been
acknowledged. Selecting a bed symbol calls up the Other Patient window for that bed.
The Care Group overview bar must be configured to display on the monitor Screen. If it is not visible
on your monitor, select a Screen which has been configured to show the bar.
