Configuration

This section covers how to configure Vigil for your facility.

Configuration Hierarchy

Vigil uses a hierarchical configuration model:

Facility
└── Units
    └── Patients
        └── Observation Levels

Settings at higher levels provide defaults that can be overridden at lower levels.

Sections

• Facilities - Facility-wide settings
• Units - Unit configuration and nighttime settings
• Staff - Staff accounts and roles
• Patients - Patient records and risk flags
• Observation Levels - Observation intervals and requirements
• Alerts - Alert escalation configuration
