Case 2: Bed Turnover Rate Indirect and Direct Method Direct Turnover Rate Method Number of discharges (including deaths) for a period / Average bed count during period Indirect Turnover Rate Method (Occupancy Rate x Number of Days in Period) / Average Length of Stay (LOS) Refer to the 260-bed hospital in Case 1. At the end of the calendar year 2018, 7521 patients had been discharged, excluding deaths. 125 patients died during that timeframe (80% occurring in the ICU). The average length of stay at this research hospital (longer due to complexity of cases as compared to national averages) was 12 days. A bed occupancy rate over the time period studied was found to be 90%. Institutional targets for bed turnover are 30 turns per year.
