Abstract
According to the MEAH (2008), hospital bed management consists of managing as best as possible the welcoming capacity in order to take into account a volume activity, while respecting quality criterion (quality of cares, delays, duration, ...) under resources constraints. This research aims to help hospital bed manager, at a strategic level, and tries to give them tools that optimize bed management while integrating the whole patient’s trajectory. This paper will put the emphasis on the originalities of this research which can be categorized into three axis. Firstly, the project wants to work on strategic level within the framework of hospitals working in networks in order to better distribute and anticipate patients’ exits. Secondly, availabilities of diagnosis resource (e.g. scan) are also going to be taken into account. Thirdly, the decision-making tool that will be developed will integrate the whole patient’s trajectory i.e. the downwards as well as the upwards.
