PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT PATIENENT ELOPEMENT AND WANDERING SYSTEM VISN 20 1. Contract Title. VISN 20 Patient Elopement & Wandering (PEW) System. 2. Background. The VA Northwest Health Network, Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 20, is responsible for providing health care to Veterans in the states of Alaska, Washington, Oregon, most of the state of Idaho, and one county each in Montana and California. VISN 20 encompasses 135 counties which cover approximately 23% of the United States land mass; 17% of which are classified as health professional shortage areas. 67% of these same counties had a 2001 per capita income below $25,000. There are approximately 1.2 million Veterans living in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, 18% of whom received VA services. The VISN 20 network of eight (8) health care facilities is comprised of (7) medical centers and one (1) rehabilitation center. Two of the health care facilities are two (2) two-division campuses. These ten (10) health care sites support thirty-six (36) Community Based Outpatient Clinics. Like all health care facilities, VISN 20 faces numerous clinical and business challenges, including patient elopement and maintaining an efficient flow of employees and patients. Most V20 sites do not have patient elopement solutions. Those that do are outdated. A patient elopement and wandering solution is needed to enhance patient safety and improve efficiency by tracking the flow of people. This capability can result in improvements such as the design of processes to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of patient care. VISN 20 recognizes that other VHA facilities encounter these same challenges and need a patient elopement and wandering solution. Therefore, the patient elopement and wandering solution procured by VISN 20 may be implemented as an option at other VHA facilities. 3. Applicable Documents.

The contractor s proposal should include systems with which their solution has verified integration. 6.23 System shall utilize the existing Government owned and operated network. 6.24 Reduce nuisance staff response alarms by creating a departure zone that only activates staff response alarms only if a patient defeats the locking system or elevator lockout and physically leaves the ward. Additionally, when an at-risk patient is in a detection zone the associated door is to lock. 6.24.1 Provide, install and configure sensors so that a patient on the ward will not trip the sensor but that the sensor will be tripped if the patient leaves the ward. 6.25 The VISN 20 enterprise-wide software license provided to the Government is a nonexclusive license to use the software. 7.
