Rooms, beds and patient placement

Prepare inpatient capacity and verify patient/bed assignments.

Platform · Last verified:

Start in Hospitalization → Rooms. Room capacity, created beds and occupied beds differ; unused capacity is not an existing bed.

Prepare rooms and beds

  1. In Create room, enter name, offered room type, capacity and description.
  2. With positive capacity, complete automatic/manual bed preparation in step two. Review prefix/start number for automatic beds or the manual list.
  3. Save and inspect the beds actually created. Later, Add bed is available in an active room with remaining capacity.
  4. Review room/bed name, type and state in editing. Do not mark an occupied bed available.
  5. Read patient linkage and confirmation before deletion/deactivation; do not remove placement to bypass capacity errors.

Place a patient

  1. Open assignment from an available bed.
  2. Select patient and check any active stay. If new admission is offered, complete hospitalization information.
  3. Review start time and visible fee/service choices, then save.
  4. Verify the same patient/room/bed in board and stay detail.

Move through the current stay's permitted transfer path rather than creating a parallel stay. Refresh availability if someone else took the bed. Check discharge in both stay and bed state; hiding a patient card is not discharge.

Example: a capacity-four room with three created beds still needs an available bed for a fourth placement. Review charges in hospitalization and care in treatment.
