  1. A 40-bed unit had 34 patients at the midnight census. What is the occupancy rate?

    Answer: 85%

    34 ÷ 40 × 100 = 85%.

  2. The unit starts the day with 28 patients, has 5 admissions, 1 transfer in, 4 discharges, and 1 death. What is the midnight census?

    Answer: 29

    28 + 5 + 1 − 4 − 1 = 29.

  3. A patient drank 8 oz of juice and 6 oz of water. How many mL should be recorded as intake?

    Answer: 420 mL

    14 oz × 30 mL = 420 mL.

  4. A patient is admitted and discharged on the same day. How many inpatient service days are counted?

    Answer: 1

    A same-day admission and discharge counts as one patient day.

  5. Over one month a unit had 600 patient days and 120 discharges. What is the average length of stay?

    Answer: 5 days

    600 ÷ 120 = 5 days.
