Hospital Beds
are a sort of shorthand for resources, thus their use is an indicator for resource use and
resource efficiency A =Available Beds (Av. For year) O = Occupied Beds (Av. for year) D = Discharges and Deaths (No. per Year) Occupancy (%) = No. of bed days occupied in a 12 month period (%) No. of bed days available in that period = O/A x 100 Turnover Interval = Average No. of days a bed is
unoccupied between admissions ToI = (A-O) x 365 Throughput = Average number of deaths and discharges per available bed Throughput = D/A Av.Bed Emptiness % Emptiness = (A-0) x 100 NB 100-Emptiness= Occupancy |
