Abstract

The increase in the number of patients admitted to the ward is one of the difficulties faced by most hospitals. Therefore, this study aims to determine the performance in the space management of government hospitals. It involves the identification of existing hospital room management patterns. Further, this study has determined the methods used to address the problem of space and bed shortage. This qualitative study uses document analysis methods, which integrate recent and past performance in meeting the needs of hospital space and beds. Admission rates, use of government hospital beds, and methods for addressing increased patient admissions for 2006 to 2015 were thematically analyzed using content analysis. This study was conducted for all government hospitals in the state of Johor. The findings of this study can be used to solve the problem of hospital space as well as further research.
