Hospital capacity management systems have become an integral part of healthcare institutions to efficiently manage hospital assets and streamline routine activities

Hospital capacity management is an integrated solution that enables the strategic plan of the hospital assets. It helps to monitor and optimize the patient volume. Hospital capacity management systems provide several key benefits to organizations looking to improve their hospital capacity. The primary benefit of Hospital Capacity Management is to reduce patient traffic within a hospital. It allows to increase the number of beds available per floor by up to 30%. Reduce waiting time by identifying priority beds that should be staffed with additional emergency nurses during peak hours. The system identifies these priority beds, notifies emergency nurses when these beds are low in availability, and when patients require more intensive care. This improves patient flow by reducing waiting time for patients and improving emergency nurse staffing.

Hospital capacity management systems improve the outcomes of healthcare centers. When your capacity is below the required level, it affects your ability to serve your patients. Many healthcare systems have used solutions that collect information on demand, such as data analytics. This information on demand allows healthcare systems to determine which processes are contributing to patient satisfaction and to take steps to improve these processes in order to improve patient satisfaction. This improvement in satisfaction results in improved patient satisfaction, which improves the bottom line of the organization.

Another major benefit of hospital capacity management is to improve emergency department efficiency. When there are too many patients in a waiting area, the waiting time for patients can be significantly increased. An example of this would be if there were not enough acute care nurses to staff the floor. If there were not enough emergency nurses available, patients would have to wait long periods in the ER waiting room, delaying the treatment they require. Recently, in June 2021, The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) launched bed allotment software for patients in tirage and COVID-19 care centers.
