1. A method, comprising:
receiving, at a hospital transport management system from an application of a handheld portable information handling device associated with a transporter, information to authenticate the transporter within the hospital transport management system;
obtaining, from the hospital transport management system and upon successful authentication of the transporter, available hospital transport job information comprising information for all available transport jobs;
identifying, at the hospital transport management system, a current status of the transporter;
providing, from the hospital transport management system and responsive to identifying the current status as on break, instructions for displaying a return to work icon within a graphical user interface of the application;
providing, from the hospital transport management system and responsive to identifying the current status as in progress with a job, instructions for displaying details of the job within a graphical user interface of the application;
providing, from the hospital transport management system and responsive to identifying the current status as available, instructions for displaying a subset of the all available transport jobs within at least one of a plurality of user interfaces of the application having a subset of information corresponding to the hospital transport management system, wherein the subset comprises hospital transport job information available to the transporter based upon an authority of the transporter;
providing, from the hospital transport management system and responsive to receiving a selection of an available job from the transporter within one of the plurality of user interfaces, instructions for displaying information related to the available job, wherein the information comprises information identifying requirements and attributes of the available job;
receiving, at the hospital transport management system, acceptance information of the transporter for the available job;
modifying, within the hospital transport management system and responsive to receiving the acceptance information, details of the available job, the modified details being viewable by other users of the hospital transport management system; and
updating, at the hospital transport management system, a status of the available job accepted by the transporter and the details of the available job as the transporter performs the available job.
