What does the 'Assign me' option do in patient treatment team assignment?

• A. Opens a help guide about teams
• B. Automatically assigns the current user to the patient's treatment team
• C. Assigns the patient to the first available bed
• D. Creates a new treatment team

Answer: (B)

Assigning yourself to a patient’s treatment team makes you an active member of that patient’s care in the workflow. When you choose this option, your user account is added to the existing team, giving you access to the patient’s notes, care plans, tasks, and team messages. It signals that you’re taking responsibility for that patient and often triggers notifications to teammates so everyone stays coordinated. It is not about opening a help guide, placing the patient in a bed, or creating a new treatment team.
