Modern Hospital
Assessment
The developing countries, which contain
a large proportion of the world's population, do not have enough
hospitals, equipment, and trained staff, and, by the standards of
the industrialized countries, the hospitals that do exist are poorly
equipped to handle the volume of persons who need care. These
persons, then, do not always receive the benefits of modern
medicine, public health measures, or hospital care, and they
generally have lower life expectancies.
The hospital as an institution is becoming more complex as modern
technology increases the range of diagnostic capabilities and
expands the possibilities for treatment. As a result of the greater
range of services and the more involved treatment and surgery
available, the ratio of staff to patient has increased and a more
highly trained staff is required. During recent years a combination
of medicine and engineering has produced a vast array of new
instrumentation, much of which requires a hospital setting for its
use. Hospitals thus are becoming more expensive to run, and health
service administrators are increasingly concerned with the question
of cost-effectiveness.
Hospitals may be assessed by the number of beds they contain. Modern
hospitals tend to be small, rarely exceeding 800 beds, which is
thought to be the largest number that can be governed satisfactorily
from a single administrative unit, yet not too large to retain a
corporate unity. Another index is the average bed-occupancy, that
is, the percentage of available beds actually occupied per day or
per month. In Europe bed-occupancy may be higher in the cold winter
months, which bring more respiratory disease. In developing
countries the bed-occupancy is often more than 100 percent: that is
to say there are more patients in the hospital than there are beds
for them. The amount of time that a patient spends in a hospital
bed, the bed-stay, is another important index and depends on the
nature of the hospital. In an acute-care hospital the bed-occupancy
will be low. In hospitals catering to the more chronically ill, the
average bed-stay probably will be higher. There are even significant
variations between units in the same hospital doing the same kind of
work. In hospitals in developing countries, the average bed-stay is
much shorter than in Europe.
