Census

This P4P target looks at the responsible use of our unfunded beds (basically, the average number of patients we have in our funded beds).

We have a number of flow strategies that we've been applying to help us move closer to / maintain our targets, ultimately improving patient outcomes by ensuring that our patients are able to access the appropriate level of care when they are ready.

• Over Capacity Protocol (OCP)
• Unfunded Bed Use
