Abstract
The present invention relates to a method, device and a computer program product for compensated staff data for one or more care units which are related to a plurality of care unit observations. The method comprises receiving staff data, receiving patient data relating to a plurality of care need parameters, determining a care need for each of a plurality of patients based on the patient data, receiving care unit data, and generating compensated staff data for the one or more care units based on the care need, the staff data and the care unit data, and transmitting the compensated staff data. By using the invention, compensated staff data may be provided in an efficient and reliable manner.
Claims15
Method performed in a device for providing compensated staff data for providing one or more care units, said one or more care units being related to a plurality of care unit observations, said method comprising:
- receiving staff data comprising the number of staff members associated with each care unit observation,
- receiving patient data associated with a plurality of patients, wherein each of said plurality of patients is associated with one of said plurality of care unit observations, said patient data relating to a plurality of care need parameters,
- determining, by a processing unit, a care need for each of said plurality of patients based on said patient data,
- receiving care unit data comprising the number of beds associated with each of said plurality of care unit observations,
- generating, by the processing unit, compensated staff data for said one or more care units based on said care need, said staff data and said care unit data, and
- transmitting said compensated staff data.
Device for providing compensated staff data for one or more care units, said one or more care units being related to a plurality of care unit observations, said device comprising:
- a receiver arranged to receive staff data comprising the number of staff members associated with each care unit observation, to receive patient data associated with a plurality of patients, wherein each of said plurality of patients is associated with one of said plurality of care unit observations, said patient data relating to a plurality of care need parameters, and to receive care unit data comprising the number of beds associated with each of said plurality of care unit observations,
- a processing unit arranged to determine a care need for each of said plurality of patients based on said patient data, and to generate compensated staff data for said one or more care units based on said care need, said staff data and said care unit data, and
- a transmitter arranged to transmit said compensated staff data.
