To be honest I think managers are interested in this and keen to be involved. Medics just see the link more easily perhaps/known it for longer

Shame other continents aren't involved.

What needs to be done to bring places like 🇺🇸 and 🇦🇷 back as well as other nations across Africa, the Americas and Asia involved? Is itbas simple as money?

ACCS-IM training day - actually trying the kit that is used in modern diabetes care

And flowthian! Just came to me! Why bed occupancy went from over 100% to more over 100%?

I quote the ‘right hand corner of doom’ quite a lot at work!

Interesting. So something has changed from the previous relationship between downstream LoS and the front door. Hospital at home?

Hmmm. My head hurts thinking about this. But we know that every increase in LoS further downstream has a subsequent increase in LoS in ED so presumably.

A chart showing two boxplots, one above the other. The boxplots measure length of stay (in hours) in an Acute Medical Unit (AMU). The top boxplot (January 2020) shows lower quartile, median and upper quartile length of stay values of 13, 21 and 30 hours respectively. The bottom boxplot (January 2024) shows lower quartile, median and upper quartile length of stay values of 22, 40 and 64 hours respectively.

Last week I did a lot of messing around with line charts and scatterplots to try and show how Acute Medical Unit (AMU) length of stay has changed over the last few years. Actually, I think I just needed to draw two boxplots.

I’m hoping I can convince you a coffee based chat may be helpful to both of us?

That final graph is mind blowing! Complexity of acute admissions went up ‘after-COVID’ combined with flow problems meant that more patients seemed to get ‘stuck’ on AMUs. AMUs aren’t designed for this - lack of continuity and ‘slower stream’ care eg MDT rehab

@drlkvaughan.bsky.social @beans2er.bsky.social @mancunianmedic.bsky.social
I seem to be finding that the longer-stay cohort are occupying a lot more AMU beds than they used to. The shorter-stay cohort: not much change.

Love this!

Though that’s a more longstanding issue. You’re either straightforward or you’re not…

Yes! Very much this!
