How do you calculate the bed occupancy rate of a hospital?
Calculate the bed - days available by multiplying the total beds available in the hospital by no. of days in the year it would be available (typically between 300-350). A hospital bed cannot be available 365 days a year as it takes time to change beddings when patients leave, or a bed may need repairs and so on. Add up the the days beds were occupied during the year - say a 300 bed hospital may have 250 beds occupied on Day 1, 275 on day 2, 200 on day 3 and so on; hospitals normally keep such records (It doesnt matter if the same patient occupies the bed on day 1/2). Dividing the latter by the former will give you an average occupancy rate for the year.

What are the five most common drugs found in an emergency room?
Emergency rooms deal with many types of injuries and illnesses. Some of the more common medical emergencies that require drugs are cardiac arrests/arrhythmias, strokes, seizures, allergic reactions, overdoses, and traumatic injuries.
The most frequently administered drugs for cardiac arrest are epinephrine and atropine, generally given for pulseless rhythms including asystole. Other emergency cardiac drugs include lidocaine, adenosine, amiodarone, calcium chloride, and sodium bicarbonate.
Diazepam is the most commonly used seizure-breaking agent, however many other benzodiazepines are in use.
Strokes require fibrinolytic therapy in eligible patients, and drugs such as alteplase and retaplase are the most commonly used.
For serious allergic reactions (anaphylactic shock) epinephrine is usually the drug of choice.
Traumatic injuries don't intrinsically require medication, as fluid loss is the most pressing concern. Most trauma patients receive large doses of fluid (saline or lactated ringers) and can occasionally require blood products.
Overdoses can be tricky, as the medication required to counteract the symptoms depend on what was ingested. For heroine and opioid overdoses, naloxone is an immediate and effective antidote. For poisons ingested orally, activated charcoal is often administered. Many poisons have their own unique antidote, and compiling a list is not practical.

How do men get their prostate examined?
the usual test is a blood test called a PSA test. this measures the amount of a hormone in the blood. higher PSA means a larger prostate. A high PSA is not necessarily an indicator of prostate cancers (PCa).
A rapidly changing PSA is an indication of PCa.
Once suspects the usual test is to do a biopsy of the prostate. The prostate is located under the bladder and right next to the rectum.
To take a biopsy - a tool is inserted in the rectum and a needle punches through the rectum wall into the prostate to take a core sample. 6 to 12 samples are usually taken.
After the biopsy, there is some pain- but be aware you will see blood in your urine and in your semen. I didn't know this and it scared the beejesus out of me and my wife.

Why hospital has a red moon sign?
In Europe (during WW1) a charity was set up to look after injured soldiers and so that the hospitals would not be attacked, a red cross on a white background was painted on them. This organization was therefore named the "red cross" and continued its charity work after the end of the war, servicing both military and civilian needs to this day. In Muslim countries the same general organization uses a red crescent (like the new moon) as its symbol rather than the red cross.
The red cross and red crescent are internationally recognized as medical facilities and transport with the symbol on must not be attacked by any troops - to do so is a breach of the Geneva convention and a war crime.
