Tech/Engineering - Medical (general)
Danish term or phrase: nærværsmarkering
This is related to a room monitoring system in a senior care home. I'm wondering if this would simply be a button to indicate that the patient is in the room, or if there is a "location"-finder component, i.e. a "positioning button" that tells the system where the patient is.

"Basic enheden har knapper, der anvendes till alarmtryk/assistancetryk og nærværsmarkering."

staff presence mode
Explanation:
This is used to register when care staff are present in the room, so as to alert the central control system when they are attending to the patient, or to call for back up.
