V originále
It is well recognised that an unnecessary or inappropriate stay in hospital, often referred to as 'bed blocking', occurs in all acute hospital specialties, especially in the care of the elderly. Studies have shown that this can have a significant effect on hospital costs. The purpose of this audit was to identify the causes of bed blocking and to determine what non-clinical or organisational factors were involved.
