Apr 24, 201016 yr Bedflow is moving pts through the hospital. Lets say a pt in ER needs and ICU bed. ICU needs to move a pt to a Medical bed. Medical unit needs to discharge a pt or move a pt to a sub-acute unit. Sub-acute must first discharge someone home or to a nursing home or whatever. So - to move 1 pt to ICU it can require the move of several pt. A bedflow co-ordinator can help work this out.
