Bed Management
Coordinate Admissions, Bed Tracking and
Discharges for Balanced Patient Flow
Bed management is often a focal point for hospital efficiency
projects, and for good reason. Delays in bed tracking and placement
affect virtually every area of the patient management system and
the hospital, in addition to patient and physician satisfaction.
However in order to help your admitting and bed
management staff improve performance, you must provide
them with much more than an automated bed board. Every day, bed
management is faced with key challenges including:
- Hidden beds
- Inefficient discharge processes
- Delayed bed turns
- Balancing demands from the ED, OR and admitting physicians
- Poor communications among the various stakeholders
StatCom goes beyond bed tracking and the patient management
system. It provides the entire organization with visibility
regarding hospital capacity, current and forecasted bed demand by
source and status of pending discharges. StatCom's
Business Activity Monitoring incorporates intelligence into the
process through sophisticated workflow and rules that are tailored
to your organization's best practices.
