Our Approach

How we delivered it

1

Integrated data from 6 source systems (EMR, bed management, staff scheduling, A&E triage, pharmacy, and lab) into a unified patient journey data model.

2

Built a real-time A&E operations dashboard showing current wait times, patient queue by acuity, and predicted breach times for 4-hour targets.

3

Developed a bed management module with predictive discharge modelling that identifies patients likely to be discharged in the next 4 hours.

4

Created a staff allocation tool that recommends nurse-to-patient ratio adjustments based on predicted ward occupancy.

5

Ran a 6-week pilot in 2 hospitals before full network rollout, validating the 48% A&E wait time reduction before scaling.
