Efficient management of hospital beds hinges on continuous visibility of both patients and bed availability, along with effective collaboration among various staff teams. Many mid-sized hospitals, however, still rely on manual processes, which can result in significant losses of bed days annually. Access Bed Control (ABC) offers a comprehensive, real-time portal that empowers hospital personnel to oversee all bed-related requirements seamlessly. By eliminating the need for interdepartmental phone calls, ABC centralizes crucial information that both patient access teams and the admitting department require to make informed placement choices. It gathers essential data regarding patients' clinical attributes and bed requirements, which can be sourced from the hospital's information system or entered manually. This data encompasses a range of factors, including diagnosis, required medical service, level of care, isolation precautions, telemetry needs, fall risk management, proximity to nursing stations, observation requirements, bariatric considerations, and behavioral health issues. The system is designed to accommodate all types of admissions, including pre-admissions and transfers, ensuring a streamlined process for patient management. By implementing Access Bed Control, hospitals can enhance their operational efficiency and improve patient care outcomes significantly.
