Admission and discharge management

Optimization of bed reoccupancy

Efficient admission and discharge management is an essential component of smooth hospital operations. It currently takes an average of 4 to 5 hours for a bed to be available again after a patient has been discharged - calculated from the time of the doctor's visit.

Optimization of bed reoccupancy for better patient care

In many hospitals, delays occur in the reoccupation of beds after patients are discharged. This delay, which averages 4-5 hours between the doctor's visit and the actual bed availability, is mainly due to manual processes required to update the National Health Service (NHS).

In addition, various downstream departments, such as bed cleaning, have to be informed separately, which leads to inefficient processes and delays in bed preparation. This waiting time means that the bed cannot be made available for new patients.

Faster bed availability

Reduction in waiting times and better utilization of capacities.

Greater
efficiency

Elimination of manual processes saves time and resources.

Improved patient care

Optimized processes speed up the admission of new patients

Optimal
collaboration

Reduction in waiting times and better utilization of capacities.

Automated data transfer

All relevant information on patient admission and discharge is automatically forwarded to the teams involved.

Admission process:

From initial admission to inpatient admission

A patient is admitted either via the Central Accident Emergancy (A&E) or as a scheduled appointment. After the initial examination and diagnosis, a decision is made as to whether inpatient admission is necessary. The attending physician makes this decision based on the medical findings.

As soon as the decision for inpatient admission has been made, the patient data is entered into the National Health Service (NHS). This is where the Central Information Board is used, which is connected to the HIS via an interface and receives and processes data such as FHIR or HL7.

This seamless integration enables the automatic collection and provision of important information, including

The Central Information Board processes this data in real time and automatically forwards it to the relevant departments. This means that important processes are initiated immediately. The system can also access various modules, for example for logistics, bed management, patient management or temperature monitoring. It is also possible to integrate external providers, such as for ordering meals.

This networking enables beds and rooms to be made available for new patients more quickly and efficiently, which significantly improves the utilization of hospital capacity.

Discharge process:

From the decision to reoccupation of the bed

A patient is discharged during the medical ward round, together with the nursing staff. The attending physician decides in consultation with the nursing staff whether the patient can be discharged. After this decision, the patient is signed out in the NHS system.

In many cases, however, the high workload of the staff leads to delays in discharge in the system. As a result, subsequent departments are not informed in time to initiate the necessary measures for bed preparation. This results in unnecessary idle times and delays in re-occupancy.

Optimization through the Central Information Board

Thanks to the integration of the Central Information Board, discharge takes place via a user-friendly digital application. A simple scan of a barcode separates patient and bed and automatically notifies all parties involved, such as bed cleaning, medical technology and logistics, to initiate the necessary steps.

Controlling and documentation:

Transparency through a timestamp-based ticket system

The Central Information Board uses a time-stamped ticket system to manage central hospital resources. This system enables transparent control of bed cleaning, logistics and medical technology by documenting and completing all orders:

Bed cleaning

Logistics orders

Medical technology

Meal ordering

Thanks to the logging of all orders, it is always possible to trace when and by whom a task was completed, which reduces the search for information and optimizes the use of available resources.

The key performance indicators that are improved by the system include

Digital networking and automation in the Central Information Board minimizes delays, uses hospital capacities more efficiently and noticeably reduces staff workload.
