Providing Status of Environmental Services Staff

Environmental Services Staff (EVS) shift worker use commands to begin and end breaks and stop a shift.

The Vocera EVS solution is fully integrated with the EPIC EVS module and improves the response time of the environmental services staff members and workflow of the EVS requests for your entire organization. EVS staff members are sent cleaning requests and automated reminders; staff members respond with voice commands that update the request status in the Epic EVS module to ensure that cleaning requests are sent to the right staff member who is available to respond to the immediate need. For more information on Vocera Environmental Services, refer to EVS Integration Deployment Guide.

When Environmental Services integration is enabled for your Vocera system, the following additional voice commands are supported on Vocera devices.
