| description | The Covid-19 pandemic has put stress on the healthcare system around the world and has had an impact on people’s access to healthcare. This study aims to underline the activities at the Rabat Children’s Hospital (HER), during the year 2020 which experienced a state of health emergency due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Material and methods: We have listed the data from the admission and billing service, about the activities of the hospitalization department of the children’s hospital, Rabat. Data was entered on WPS and analyzed by Jamovi software 1.6.23. We also calculated some performance indicators: Average occupancy rate, average length of stay, and bed turnover interval (BOR, LOS, and BTOI). Results: We distinguished between services providing « urgent care » (intensive care unit ICU and emergency rooms ER) and those providing « non-urgent care » (pediatry and surgery) department. The mean number of hospital admissions (NHA) was around 8123 + /− 3942. The average BOR, LOS and BTOI were respectively 72.0 days (SD: 32.6), 66.83 days (SD: 2.68) and 3.89 days (SD: 4.34).
Conclusion : The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on our hospital activities, disturbing its normal functioning. This study tried to have an overview on the current situation and should lead to other studies in the future, allowing a better managmnt of our hospital. |
