Operations

Designates the sex-based occupancy restriction or assignment preference for a specific hospital bed or room, such as male-only, female-only, or mixed. Used in bed management systems to ensure appropriate patient placement in compliance with privacy and clinical policies.

The originating system, facility, or data feed from which patient accommodation unit information is derived in healthcare data integration workflows. Used in EHR data pipelines and ADT interfaces to track provenance of bed records across platforms such as Epic, Cerner, RTLS systems, and third-party bed management solutions for data governance purposes.

The calendar date marking the beginning of a patient's assignment or occupancy of a specific accommodation unit within hospital ADT and billing systems. Used in EHR platforms and claims data processing to establish the onset of per-diem accommodation charges, calculate length-of-stay intervals, and validate inpatient encounter timelines for revenue cycle workflows.

The time at which a patient's occupancy of a specific hospital bed officially begins. Captured in inpatient bed management and census systems to track bed utilization, calculate length of stay intervals, and support accurate nursing unit staffing and billing records.

The current operational status of a hospital bed at any given point in time, such as occupied, available, dirty, in maintenance, or blocked. Used in real-time bed management systems to support census tracking, housekeeping workflows, and inpatient capacity management.

Indicates the current operational state of a hospital bed unit within ADT (Admission, Discharge, Transfer) and census management systems. Common values include available, occupied, dirty, or out-of-service. Used in EHR and bed management platforms to track real-time capacity.

The physical street address of the facility or building where a specific hospital bed is located. Used in multi-site health system bed management records to distinguish bed inventory across different campuses, buildings, or satellite inpatient facilities.

Indicates the care intensity or clinical capability level supported by a specific bed, such as ICU, step-down, medical-surgical, or observation. Used in bed management systems to match patient acuity with appropriate inpatient bed resources and nursing staffing ratios.

A partial count or aggregated sum of beds within a defined subset of a facility, such as beds within a specific unit, wing, or care level. Used in inpatient capacity reporting and bed management dashboards to support census analysis and resource planning.

A unique system-generated identifier assigned to a specific hospital bed within the bed management or hospital information system. Used to consistently reference, track, and link bed-level records across inpatient census, assignment, housekeeping, and clinical documentation workflows.

Identifies the intended destination bed assignment for a patient during transfer or placement workflows in ADT and EHR systems. Used by bed management and patient flow platforms to coordinate unit assignments, reduce boarding times, and support capacity planning operations.

A standardized classification code that categorizes a hospital bed by care type or service level, such as acute care, psychiatric, rehabilitation, or long-term care. Used in facility licensing, regulatory reporting, and inpatient capacity management systems to classify bed inventory.

Records the ambient or monitored temperature associated with a specific patient bed environment, particularly relevant in neonatal ICU, isolation, or specialty care settings. Used in clinical monitoring systems to ensure patient safety and regulatory compliance for environmental standards.

The date on which a specific hospital bed is decommissioned, taken out of service, or removed from available inventory. Captured in bed management and facility records to maintain accurate licensed bed counts, support regulatory reporting, and track capital asset lifecycles.

Records the specific time of day associated with a bed-related event, such as bed request, assignment, or status change, within ADT and patient flow management systems. Used in EHR platforms to measure throughput metrics, boarding duration, and bed turnover efficiency.

Captures the full date and time of a bed-related transaction or status change within ADT, EHR, and hospital census systems. Used by data engineers to build audit trails, calculate length-of-stay intervals, and support patient flow analytics and capacity reporting pipelines.

The formal name or descriptive label assigned to a specific hospital bed or bed category within the facility's bed management system, such as 'ICU Bed 4A' or 'Isolation Room 210B'. Used to identify and reference beds consistently across clinical and administrative workflows.

Represents the aggregate count of bed units within a facility, unit, or ward as tracked by hospital census and capacity management systems. Used in EHR and operational reporting pipelines to monitor licensed, staffed, and available bed totals for regulatory and planning purposes.

The aggregate number of beds within a defined scope, such as a nursing unit, facility, or health system. Used in inpatient capacity management, regulatory licensure reporting, and strategic planning to quantify total available, occupied, and staffed bed inventory.

Classifies a hospital bed according to its clinical designation, such as ICU, medical-surgical, telemetry, or psychiatric, within ADT and facility management systems. Used in EHR and claims data to support billing, capacity planning, and care setting identification across inpatient workflows.
