Testing the Health Buddy
Before you can transfer a Health Buddy to another patient, you need to verify that it works
properly.
To test the Health Buddy:
1. Power up the Health Buddy by plugging one end of the power supply into an electrical
outlet and the other end into the back of the Health Buddy. After displaying the logo
screen, the Health Buddy will display the message, “Your Health Buddy has
experienced an interruption in power.”
2. Go to the welcome screen by pressing “continue.”
