Stop late trays before patients go without a meal

Every 5 minutes during meal service, WebRun opens Computrition, checks which trays are still marked undelivered past their unit's service window, texts the room service runner covering that unit through Twilio, and posts a Teams alert to nutrition services so a late tray gets caught while the meal is still hot.

In short

How do I catch late tray deliveries before a patient misses a meal?

WebRun checks Computrition every 5 minutes during meal service for trays still undelivered past that unit's service window. Once a tray runs more than 15 minutes late, it texts the assigned room service runner through Twilio with the room number, and posts a live count of late trays by unit to Microsoft Teams, so nutrition services can step in fast.

  • Late trays get caught within 5 minutes of missing the service window
  • Runners get a direct text instead of a supervisor hunting them down
  • Nutrition services sees a live count of late trays by unit all through service

Questions, answered

Does it text the patient when their tray is late?

No. WebRun only texts the room service runner covering that unit through Twilio. It never contacts the patient about the delay.

How late does a tray have to be before it's flagged?

By default, more than 15 minutes past that unit's meal service window. The threshold can be adjusted in your run settings.

Does it reroute or reassign the runner itself?

No. WebRun only alerts the runner already assigned to that unit. Reassigning a delivery is left to your room service supervisor.
