The rising number of patient admissions is anticipated to drive growth in the nursing resource allocation market in the future. Patient admission refers to the formal acceptance of a patient into a healthcare facility or hospital for treatment or observation. The increase in patient admissions is due to factors such as the aging population, advancements in medical technology, higher patient expectations, and greater access to healthcare services. Effective nursing resource allocation enhances patient care by matching staff with patient needs and acuity, improving outcomes and reducing complications. It also optimizes workflows and reduces burnout, leading to better care and lower staff turnover. For example, a December 2023 report from the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK indicated 408,700 hospital admissions in 2022-2023, marking a 5% increase from 389,800 admissions in 2021-2022 in England.
