For hospitals Admissions & discharge

Hospital admission and discharge software

Admit a patient in three steps, move them between beds and wards, and see who is holding up each discharge.

The admission screen: find or register the patient, add admission details, then confirm.
Admit a patient in three steps.
What it does

Admit a patient from one screen at the front desk. Move them to another bed or ward when needed. When it is time to go home, see which department is still holding up the discharge.

Who uses it

The front desk, who admit patients. Ward staff, who move them. And the discharge team, who need every department to sign off before the patient leaves.

What this fixes

⏳

Long waits at the admission desk

Staff walk between counters and phone the wards to find a free bed while the family waits.

🔀

Transfers on paper

A patient moves to the ICU and the register still shows the old ward.

🕰️

Discharge takes hours

Nobody can say which department has not signed off, so the patient sits in the bed.

🔍

Duplicate patient files

A returning patient gets a new file because the old one could not be found quickly.

What you get

What the admissions & discharge screens do

Admit in three short steps

Find the patient by name, phone or MRN, or register a new one. Add the admission details. Confirm. That is it.

New patients get an MRN

A new patient registered at the desk is given a hospital MRN straight away, so the next visit finds the same file.

A bed is picked for you

The system finds a free bed by bed class and isolation need. You can also choose a ward. If no bed is free, the admission is still saved and staff are told.

Every kind of admission

Elective, emergency, day care, newborn and transfer-in admissions. Mark medico-legal cases when you admit them.

Ward and bed transfers

Move a patient to a free bed in any ward. A reason is required, and every move is kept in the transfer history.

Discharge clearance board

See every patient whose discharge has started, which departments still need to sign off, and how long they have waited. Waits over 1 hour turn amber, over 2 hours turn red.

🔒

An override always needs a reason

On the discharge board, a department can clear its task, or a senior user can override it. An override cannot be saved without a written reason, and that reason is logged and shown next to the task.

Questions

Questions about admissions & discharge

Can the front desk admit a patient without calling the ward?

Yes. The admission screen picks a free bed by bed class and isolation need. Staff can also choose a ward. The patient then shows on the ward's bed board.

What happens if no bed is free?

The admission is still saved. Staff are told that no bed could be given, and the patient can be placed later from the bed board.

How does the discharge clearance board help?

It lists every patient whose discharge has started, the departments that still have to sign off, and the waiting time. The oldest wait is at the top, so staff know who to chase first.

Do hospitals sign up online?

No. We set up each hospital with you. Book a demo and we will show you the admission flow on your own wards and beds.
