The proposal suggests the development of a portable device connected to the nurses' desk to improve response time to patient signals. Nurses are often too busy to notice signals immediately, which can lead to delayed response times and endanger patients. The proposed device would vibrate or produce a tone indicating the bed number, allowing nurses to respond more quickly. The proposal also highlights the issue of burnout among healthcare staff due to long shifts.
