Your workplace tells the app where you are, so it can show the equipment nearest to you. You answer four questions the first time you open the app for finding equipment, and the app remembers your answers on that phone.
Before you begin
Before you start, make sure the following are complete:
- Kio Nurse Assistant is installed on your phone and you are signed in. See Sign in to Kio Nurse Assistant.
- You are assigned the Asset Tracking User role under Kio Nurse (Mobile). See About user access to Kio Nurse Assistant.
- You know which campus, building, floor, and department you work in. The campuses you can choose from are the ones assigned to your user profile.
Steps
Open Kio Nurse Assistant.
-
If the app asks what you would like to do, tap Find nearby tracked assets.
Note: You see this screen only if you also have Hand Hygiene access. If you hold only the Asset Tracking User role, the app opens straight into Find.
Tap Set up my workplace.
-
Select your campus, then tap Continue.
Everything the app searches lives inside the campus you pick, so choose the one where you actually work.
Select your building, then tap Continue.
Select your floor.
Select your department.
Tap Start using Kio Nurse.
Tip: If you are not sure of an answer, tap Continue without selecting to skip that question. If you skip the campus, setup finishes with no location set, and the Find tab shows Set your location — Search and Quick Picks cover every campus until you do. Tap it to finish setting your workplace.
Result
The Find tab opens, and Settings now shows your workplace under Where you work. Results are ordered from where you are, with your own floor first.
Clean & ready only is turned on by default, so the app shows only equipment that is free and cleaned. Turn it off in Settings to see equipment that is in use or soiled as well.
Next, choose the four asset types you look for most: Search and locate assets from your phone.
Change your workplace later
You can change your workplace at any time, and you have two ways to do it depending on how long the change lasts.
- For the rest of your shift, tap the workplace header at the top of any view, set the new floor and department, then tap Set my location. Results reorder around your new location.
- For a permanent change, such as moving site, open Settings > Where you work and change the campus, building, or floor and department.
Your workplace is saved on this phone, not in your account. Signing in on a different phone starts setup again.
