One of the country’s busiest NHS trusts is transforming flow through its emergency pathways thanks to reverse bed chains, a revolutionary new approach to bed management.
Nottingham University Hospitals is accelerating the safe transfer of patients through its hospitals following the introduction of a reverse bed chain model, enabled by system-wide visibility of data routinely captured by clinicians via Nervecentre. It allows patients timely access to emergency care by facilitating an earlier-in-the-day transfer of care from the emergency department to an admission ward.
Early data from a six-month pilot programme suggests the approach has reduced the time it takes to transfer patients to an appropriate bed by as much as 75%.
