Abstract: An integrated health care delivery network with enabling software and network technology to maximize bed resources, manage varying census levels, and avoid patient diversions through real-time monitoring, automation and communication, is disclosed. Preferably, the present invention is embodied in a bed management/census control dashboard (BMD) system that interfaces with and complements existing Admission/Discharge/Transfer (ADT) systems. The BMD system is an easy-to-use business intelligence application that is designed to allow administrators, clinicians and managers to easily access, analyze and display real-time patient and bed availability information from ancillary information systems, databases and spreadsheets. It enables users to see trends and relationships in hospital (bed) management data directly from their desktop personal computers.

Abstract: The present invention provides a computer implemented system and method for selecting a best-suited individual for performing a task from a plurality of individuals. The method including identifying a plurality of individuals for performing a task, receiving a task to be assigned to an individual, assessing the suitability of each of the plurality of available individuals for performing the task, and determining a best-suited individual for performing the task. The method includes evaluating for each individual the individual's current workload, the individual's proximity to a location of the current task and the individual's responsibility for performing the current task. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention is utilized to balance the workload of a hospital's housekeeping staff assigned to dean beds in a hospital thereby decreasing the bed turnover time and increasing the patient throughput of the hospital.
