1. A device, comprising:

  • a deformable substrate configured to conform to a skin surface of a body portion of a healthcare provider;

    a sensor assembly coupled to the deformable substrate, the sensor assembly including one or more identity sensors configured to generate one or more identity sense signals associated with at least one physical characteristic of an individual subject other than the healthcare provider;

    circuitry operably coupled to the sensor assembly and configured to receive the one or more identity sense signals associated with the at least one physical characteristic of the individual subject, the circuitry includingan identity comparison module configured to compare the one or more identity sense signals generated by the sensor assembly to reference data indicative of one or more physical characteristics associated with an identity of at least one individual to determine whether the one or more identity sense signals correspond to the identity of the at least one individual, andan authorization module configured to compare at least one of the one or more identity sense signals or the identity of the at least one individual with one or more authorization parameters, the circuitry configured to authorize the healthcare provider to perform a health service action with respect to the individual subject when a correspondence between at least one of the one or more identity sense signals or the identity of the at least one individual with the one or more authorization parameters is at least at a threshold correspondence; and

    a reporter operably coupled to the circuitry and configured to generate one or more communication signals responsive to instruction by the circuitry prior to or in conjunction with authorization of the healthcare provider to perform the health service action with respect to the individual subject, the one or more communication signals associated with authorization of the healthcare provider to perform the health service action with respect to the individual subject.
