Systems, devices, and methods are described for moving a patient to and from various locations, care units, etc., within a care facility. For example a transport and support vehicle includes a body structure including a plurality of rotatable members operable to frictionally interface the vehicle to a travel path and to move the vehicle along the travel path, and a surface structured and dimensioned to support an individual subject. A transport and support vehicle can include, for example, an imager operably coupled to one or more of a power source, a steering assembly, one or more of the plurality of rotatable members, etc., and having one or more modules operable to control the power source, steering assembly, one or more of the plurality of rotatable members, etc., so as to maintain an authorized operator in the image zone.

1. A self-propelled operator-guided bed, comprising: an operator-authorization device having a communication interface to acquire operator-guide verification information from an identification device associated with an operator-guide, the operator-authorization device including one or more tracking
1. A self-propelled operator-guided bed, comprising: an operator-authorization device having a communication interface to acquire operator-guide verification information from an identification device associated with an operator-guide, the operator-authorization device including one or more tracking sensors operable to track one or more locations of the identification device associated with the operator-guide;a bedframe structure including a surface configured to support a patient;a transport assembly operably coupled to the bedframe structure, the transport assembly having a plurality of rotatable members operable to frictionally interface the transport assembly to a travel path and to move the transport assembly along the travel path, anda steering assembly operable to vary a steering angle or an orientation of at least one of the plurality of rotatable members;a power source and a motor for driving one or more of the plurality of rotatable members; anda navigation controller operably coupled to the operator-authorization device and the bedframe structure, the navigation controller including circuitry operable to provide a first control signal to navigate the bedframe structure along a travel path based on the one or more locations of the identification device;circuitry operable to provide a second control signal to navigate the bedframe structure to a target location based on one or more inputs indicative of a change in health status of the patient. 2. The self-propelled operator-guided bed of claim 1, wherein the operator-authorization device includes a negotiation module configured to initiate a discovery protocol that allows the operator-authorization device and the identification device associated with the operator-guide to identify each other and negotiate one or more pre-shared keys. 3. The self-propelled operator-guided bed of claim 1, wherein the operator-authorization device includes one or more memories having patient-specific route-to-destination information stored thereon. 4. The self-propelled operator-guided bed of claim 1, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to acquire patient identification information. 5. The self-propelled operator-guided bed of claim 1, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to acquire self-propelled operator-guided vehicle status information. 6. The self-propelled operator-guided bed of claim 1, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to acquire patient identification information associated with the patient, and wherein the navigation controller includes circuitry operable to generate route-to-destination information based on the acquired patient identification information associated with the patient. 7. A self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system, comprising: a self-propelled operator-guided vehicle including a bedframe structure having a surface configured to support a patient, the bedframe structure including a plurality of rotatable members operable to frictionally interface the vehicle to a travel path and to move the vehicle along the travel path, and a navigation system configured to vary one or more of propulsion, braking, or steering angle of at least one of the plurality of rotatable members;an operator-authorization device operably coupled to the bedframe structure and having one or more sensors operable to detect an operator-guide identification device associated with an operator-guide, anda communication interface configured to acquire operator-guide verification information from the operator-guide identification device; anda navigation controller operably coupled to the operator-authorization device and the bedframe structure, the navigation controller including circuitry operable to provide a control signal to navigate the bedframe structure to a target location based on one or more inputs indicative of a change in health status of the patient,the operator-authorization device configured to acquire information indicative of at least one of an operator-guide authorization status, an operator-guide identity, and an operator-guide reference physical movement information; andgenerate one or more control commands for causing the bedframe structure to maintain the self-propelled operator-guided vehicle at a target separation from the authorized operator-guide identification device based on the at least one of the operator-guide authorization status, the operator-guide identity, and the operator-guide reference physical movement information. 8. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to acquire navigation plan information from the operator-guide identification device and to cause the generation of the one or more control commands for causing the bedframe structure to maintain the self-propelled operator-guided vehicle at the target separation from the authorized operator-guide identification device based on the navigation plan information. 9. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device includes a navigation module operably coupled to the one or more sensors and is configured to detect a location of the operator-guide identification device associated with the operator-guide. 10. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device include a navigation module operably coupled to the one or more sensors and is configured to determine a location of the operator-guide identification device relative to the self-propelled operator-guided vehicle. 11. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device includes a navigation module operably coupled to the one or more sensors and is configured to generate one or more control commands for maintaining a velocity difference between the self-propelled operator-guided vehicle and the operator-guide identification device within a target range. 12. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to generate route-to-destination information responsive to a displacement of the operator-guide identification device relative to the self-propelled operator-guided vehicle. 13. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to generate one or more control commands for controlling one or more of propulsion, braking, or steering responsive to movement of the operator-guide identification device. 14. The self-propelled operator-guided vehicle system of claim 7, wherein the operator-authorization device is configured to generate one or more control commands for controlling one or more of propulsion, braking, or steering responsive to movement of the operator-guide identification device responsive to a communication loss between the operator-guide identification device and the self-propelled operator-guided vehicle.
