Resource Use

The Critical Care and Medicine Database is used to analyze resource use in the WRHA.

Delays arriving on our units

We also collect ADT data which allows us to analyze patient flow to and from units where we collect data. Specifically, we monitor the ER Delay incurred by patients accepted to our units/wards but waiting in ICU for actual transfer there.

Delays in leaving our units

We track Transfer Ready DtTm and Dispo DtTm, allowing us to analyze such things as
