A medical treatment (A) is given to COVID patients admitted to a local hospital. Fortunately, 30% of patients will fully recover and can be released from hospitals. The remaining 70% patients will need to go through a second treatment (either C, 50% or D, 20%) before they will fully recover and can be released. Assume 100 patients per day are being admitted to the hospital for medical treatments. Capacity utilization for resource treating patients from A to D is calculated using 2,000 hospital beds designated for COVID treatment. The process diagram is given here for reference. 30% с 8 days 50% Admitted 7 days 2 days Released 20% D 10 days
What is the average Length of Stay (LOS) for a patient, from being admitted to released? (Correct to the nearest integer) 19 days 17 days 18 days 16 days 15 days
Given the average LOS of a patient and 2,000 beds available in the hospital to treat COVID patient, what is the maximum number of patients per day (on average) can the hospital admit? (Correct to the nearest integer) 111 118 133 125 105
