- Apple Watch: Learner Alerts & Actor Cues
Bedside Coach · For faculty and students
An alert and a cue
The watch can show the learner a quiet case update, and the phone can send the actor a silent cue so the learner never hears a stage direction. They connect nearby. Acknowledging an alert means the learner saw it. The care itself still happens in the scenario.

The watch shows a critical result. The phone shows silent cues for the actor.

Why this is special
A critical result can reach the wrist without a loud announcement. The buttons on the phone cue the actor silently, so the learner's conversation is not interrupted by a spoken stage direction.
What the app is doing
The watch says the potassium is critical. The phone offers Proceed, Wait, Escalate, and Tone down.
Arrow keys or a sideways swipe move between scenes. Fictional practice only.
