Example 1. Reductions in occupied bed days for unplanned care

This model provides an indication for a typical PCT population of the number of occupied bed days for unplanned admissions by 2007/08 based on current projections for unplanned care admissions and demographic changes. It then allows for an adjustment of these basic assumptions and the addition of a chronic disease management service which both avoids hospital admission and reduces length of stay for CDM clients who are admitted. Your mission (without the choice not to accept it) is to achieve a 5% reduction by 2007/08.

Example 2. Alternatives to Residential Care

This model seeks to explore the relationship between length of stay, admission rates and occupancy levels in Intensive Home Care (IHC) and Residential Home (RH) on the introduction of a new strategy that invests in IHC as an alternative to RH.
