I hope this is a simple question. I have patients that are low acuity but still need a wheelchair. When they enter or exit the department, I want to simulate them moving themselves in the wheelchair. Is it possible to do this without staff?

Hi Chandler,

To do that, you need to change the Wheelchair's properties so that it is allowed to travel and use a Travel activity in Process Flow where the Executer is the Wheelchair.

I hope it helps!

Super interesting. I haven't looked at the travel activities so I will have to give it a try and come back here to accept the answer if it works as I'm hoping it does.

Thanks

I have not had time to try to apply this yet. I believe that the answer Paula gave is sufficient but haven't tested to see if it solves the problem as desired. I have not accepted the answer but if you're ok with that being auto accepted then I won't mess with it.
