The lack of space required many places to be converted into temporary triage locations. Triage is a quick way to streamline examination and get serious cases handled first. Another issue was moving bedridden patients after their surgeries because of the narrow hatchways and doorways. The amount of patients required another ship to be dispatched to accommodate the patients. The lack of supplies and the variations of injuries caused continuous problems for surgeons, especially those who were becoming extremely fatigued. A common issue was that the extent of injuries could not have been determined completely until the patient was on the operating table. For example patients who were referred to as D and B in the report took the constant attention and the former succumbed to his injuries after two hours. the latter survived after given saline, but still needed constant attention. Another example is an unnamed patient who was not examined for over forty hours, had developed large maggots in his wounds. Unlike modern operating rooms, supplies could not be set up according to procedure. Because of the time required to properly sanitize blankets, many soldiers were without one. (Darby)

We then load trolleys with the necessary paperwork and go from patient to patient, checking which paperwork needs replenishing and noting down what time physiological measurements etc. need doing and tidying the bed areas.

In terms of resources and finances, inpatient care is the most costly form of healthcare. It not only requires the medical supplies, but basic care supplies such as food, bedding, etc. It requires more practical resources in terms of electricity and other services, as well as more human resources, as the patients require round the clock care and availability. Hospitals and centers providing inpatient care therefore need a minimum of two shifts, and possibly three in order to avoid unnecessary and costly mistakes due to the workers’ exhaustion.

As a solution, core staffing should consist of at least two registered nurses, an ED physician, and secretary on duty at all times, with a plan for increases based on current census and acuity, nursing time and interventions, length of stay, skill mix and patient care time (Emergency Nurses Association, 2011). By having this core staff in place, the patient would have had a nurse available to continuously monitor his status.

The need for blood testing, not only is important for a wide range of health issues, but it is also in demand throughout the country in urban, suburban and rural areas. In short, everywhere you find people, there is a need for health care and this type of work. If you find you need to relocate to another part of the country, you will likely be able to find work near your new home.

Use at least two patient identifiers when providing care. Double checking of ID bands and ID/Driver’s license of patient if possible. Using labels to mark all materials /items needed for the procedures. A two person check off procedure must be implemented. Items requiring labeling include: patient records, signed consents, and all assessments, diagnostic tests and x-rays. Also included should be any item that is needed for the procedure (blood products, devices, and equipment). Using a matching system, so that all items in the procedure area are matched to the patient. The matching system must be completed by a minimum of two staff members. These staff members should include a qualified staff member, nursing staff involved in the procedure, recovery room staff, and discharge staff.

Which Tools Can Be Used to More Efficiently Manage the Flow of Patients in the Facility?

When overcrowding occurs, patients are placed in the hallway waiting for room to be transferred to. Any time overcrowding occurs most ambulances divert away from the closest hospital to the patients and in this situation hospitals lose a lot of revenue. Data published in the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in 2004 report national hospital ambulatory medical care survey on ED summary depicted that ED in United State are approaching a boiling point in terms of increasing patient demand and shrinking bed capacity, Levin et al (Fall,2006). According to the Institute of Healthcare Improvement, a recent survey conducted by the American College of Emergency physician of about 200 hospital administrators, majority pointed at overcrowding as their major constraint and about 60% said overcrowding in their facility forces the diversion of patients with urgent need
