Inpatient Stays
Inpatient stays refer to periods when a patient is admitted to a hospital or medical facility and stays overnight or longer for treatment, observation, or recovery. During this time, they receive continuous medical care from healthcare professionals, which may include surgeries, tests, or managing serious health conditions. The stay is planned or urgent, depending on the medical need. Inpatient stays are essential for close monitoring and intensive treatment that cannot be managed on an outpatient basis. They vary in length, from a single night to several weeks, depending on the patient’s condition and treatment requirements.
