I am looking for some sort of big programmable buttons. Not sure if something simple exists.

Basically, this is to enhance flow through clinic, looking for a relatively simple solution.

I just want some big battery-powered bluetooth buttons that I can give custom commands in tasker to text tell people to assist with tasks or bring me certain things. I'm not sure if something simple like this exists. (Thinking of like three or four different colored "easy" buttons).

I haven't found anything quite as specific as this, but it's been something nerdy I've been thinking about that would save me time.

those dog buttons would do exactly what you want... might be weird, but its bluetooth, you can have dozens of task-specific buttons and assign buttons to other people via email and such.. iphone/android app

Those look like they put old flic buttons into a shell. Speaking of Flic button might work too. They are Bluetooth and support ifft and other protocols
