A method and system are provided for sending location dependent and personal identification information to a public safety answering point. Base stations for receiving a transmission packet signal having a transmitter identification number are located throughout an area where personal security coverage is desired. Whenever a personal security transmitter is activated, it is received by one or more base stations. Each base station has a signal receiving unit for receiving a transmission packet signal and a signal processing unit for processing a transmission packet signal and generating a base station packet. Base station packets contain both a transmitter identification number and location information about the activated transmitter. After a base station packet is generated, it is sent to a command center for processing. If a valid base station packet is received at a command center, information contained in the base station packet is used to determine the closest base station to the activated transmitter and to retrieve personal identification information about the person to whom the transmitter was issued. This location and personal identification information is then displayed at the command center or public safety answering point.

A system and method for displaying a health status of hospitalized patients. Patient data associated with hospitalized patients is selected according to display rules. A display module selects selected patient data, applies display rules to the selected patient data, and displays the selected patient data.

Standard mobile cellular telephones use shortened burst signal transmissions to synchronize the transmission of a call over a cellular telephone network. These shortened bursts as well as other traffic channel bursts can be used to locate the position of the cell phone. In operation, a primary base station sends a traffic channel designation message to a selected mobile phone which then initiates selected traffic channel burst transmissions, such as shortened bursts, over an interval of five seconds or less. The primary station and at least two other neighboring base stations receive these burst transmissions and determine their respective distances from the cell phone based upon the time of arrival of the bursts or some other suitable distance related measurement. A command center determines the location of the cell phone by triangulating the distance measurements of the base stations.
