Automated ICNet Isolation Expiry Reminders
Every morning, WebRun opens ICNet, finds active isolation precautions nearing their expected review point, such as a completed symptom-free period or a pending clearance culture, logs each to a Google Sheets tracker with the precaution type and days active, and texts the unit charge nurse by Twilio so a clinician reviews whether precautions should continue.
How do I get reminded before isolation precautions need review in ICNet?
WebRun opens ICNet each morning, finds active isolation precautions that reached their expected review point, such as a symptom-free period ending or a clearance culture becoming due, and logs each to a Google Sheets tracker. It texts the unit charge nurse by Twilio, so a clinician reviews whether to continue or discontinue precautions instead of them running longer than needed.
- Precautions due for review are texted to the unit the same morning, not discovered days late
- Clearance culture status is visible in the tracker without a chart lookup
- Already-reviewed precautions drop off the list automatically so nothing is double-worked

Questions, answered
Does it automatically end isolation precautions?
No. It only flags that a precaution has reached its expected review point and reminds the unit. A clinician always confirms clearance criteria are met before precautions are discontinued.
What counts as a precaution being ready for review?
A symptom-free period ending or a clearance culture becoming due, based on the criteria already set in ICNet for that precaution type. You are not changing clinical criteria, just surfacing when they are met.
What if the review already happened?
It checks ICNet for a logged review decision before including a row, so a precaution already reviewed and updated will drop off the next day's tracker and text.
