If you are a hospital seeking an inpatient bed, capacity is determined each morning after clinical rounds at 11:00am at which time we can quickly provide an updated response:

Inpatient bed availability varies based on our capacity to provide care. This capacity is reassessed on a continual basis throughout the day and, in particular, during daily team rounds which conclude at approximately 11am. We understand that accessing inpatient treatment can be frustrating for all involved. While we strive to provide a concrete “yes” or “no” regarding bed availability, variability in clinical acuity and barriers to discharge planning frequently make this challenging. Please know that we will do everything we can to streamline the admission process and to make it as stress-free for all involved.
