Bed & Occupancy Management
Optimizing hospital flow through real-time tracking of wards, rooms, and bed availability.
Hospital Hierarchy
Curenium organizes physical space into a logical hierarchy to simplify navigation and reporting.
- Departments: High-level clinical areas (e.g., Cardiology, ICU).
- Wards: Specific units within a department (e.g., Ward A, Pediatric Ward).
- Rooms: Shared or private spaces within a ward.
- Beds: Individual patient stations designated by unique numbers.
Bed Types
The system supports various bed configurations to ensure patients are placed in appropriate care settings:
- Standard: Routine inpatient care.
- ICU: Specialized beds with intensive monitoring capabilities.
- Private / Semi-Private: Differentiated by facility level and privacy.
Occupancy Tracking
Manage the clinical "pulse" of each unit through real-time status updates.

Assignment Workflow
Assigning a patient to a bed automatically updates their Clinical Location across the entire EHR system.
- Admission: Single-click assignment from the Bed Detail page.
- Transfer: Move a patient between beds or wards while maintaining clinical continuity.
- Discharge: Automatically flags the bed for "Cleaning" status upon patient departure.
Facility Tracking
Track integrated facilities for each bed (e.g., Ventilator, Cardiac Monitor, Oxygen).
Occupancy Alerts
Automatic notifications when a ward reaches 90% capacity to trigger surge protocols.
Only Admins and Nurse Matrons have the authority to create new beds or change bed types in the hospital management settings.
