Our Challenges

Bed Occupancy:
An Ongoing Challenge
There is a high demand for Sunnybrook’s
resources, in particular inpatient beds.
The hospital has a set a target goal of
95 per cent bed occupancy, also called
“Drive to 95%”.

Drive to 95%
• Drive to 95 helps to reduce wait times in the Emergency
Department and ensures that patients are discharged from the
hospital in a timely manner.
• Sunnybrook has taken several steps to help move towards
a 95 per cent occupancy, including developing a new role
called Transitional Coordinator to help patients and families
return home as quickly and safely as possible.
