Overview:
The Hospital Resource Utilization Dashboard is a real-time monitoring and analytics platform designed to help hospitals track, analyze, and optimize the use of their medical resources, including beds, ICU units, medical equipment, and staff allocation. By providing clear visual insights, the system supports better decision-making, reduces resource wastage, and improves patient care efficiency.

Key Features:

1. Real-Time Resource Tracking – Monitors availability and occupancy of hospital beds, ICUs, ventilators, and operation theaters.

2. Staff Allocation View – Displays nurse-to-patient ratios, doctor schedules, and on-call staff availability.

3. Equipment Usage Monitoring – Tracks medical equipment usage rates to avoid downtime or shortages.

4. Patient Flow Analytics – Visualizes admission, discharge, and transfer rates to identify bottlenecks.

5. Demand Forecasting – Predicts future demand for beds, equipment, or staff based on historical patient data and seasonal trends.

6. Customizable Alerts – Sends notifications for low stock of critical supplies (oxygen, medicines, PPE).

7. Interactive Charts & Reports – Provides visual dashboards for administrators to monitor performance KPIs.

8. Role-Based Access Control – Ensures sensitive patient data is accessible only to authorized staff.

Technology Stack:

• Backend: PHP / Node.js / Java (for API and data processing)

• Frontend: HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript with chart libraries (Chart.js, D3.js)

• Database: MySQL / PostgreSQL

• Optional ML Module: Python (scikit-learn) for demand prediction and trend analysis

Use Cases:

• Hospital Administrators – Optimize bed allocation, staff scheduling, and equipment usage.

• Government Health Departments – Monitor hospital capacity during pandemics or disaster situations.

• Healthcare Planners – Improve resource distribution across multiple hospitals in a region.

Expected Outcome:
A data-driven hospital management tool that ensures maximum efficiency in resource usage, reduces patient wait times, and improves readiness during medical emergencies.
