The use of "Controlled Restrictions" by properly trained personnel is the easiest way to accomplish what you desire. However, I would think that it should be a function of the admissions staff rather than that of your operators. This is where the rubber meets the road and these are the folks that control the money, insurance, etc. They know and control WHEN a patient is admitted to a room, what room, how long, etc. You could easliy assign a COS with console permissions to their digital sets and allow them to set the "Controlled Restrictions" whenever they admit or discharge a patient.

Aside from "controlled restrictions" you'd need to have a 24-hour administration staff to do it from software by changing the COR, etc. ... not a pretty prospect.
