How it works
One stay,
start to finish.
Follow a patient through the ward. The bed is assigned before they arrive, the care plan turns into the nurses' shift, the doctor rounds on their own unit's patients, and your own team keeps the ward structure up to date.
IPD · 01
An admission is a bed, from minute one.
Doctors send patients for admission and the requests line up in a pending queue at the admission desk. Admitting a patient means assigning a ward and a bed, up front. There is no such thing as a bedless admission, and nobody waits on a trolley "somewhere".
- One queue. Every admission request from the consult rooms and the front desk lands in one queue, with its urgency and waiting time on every row.
- A ward and a bed, up front. The desk picks the ward and the exact bed at the moment of admission. The bed is committed before the patient moves.
- Its own number. Every admission carries its own number. The file, the nurse tasks and the bill all follow it for the whole stay.
- Live on the ward. As soon as the desk saves, the bed is marked occupied, and within a minute the floor plan and the nurses on that ward see their new patient, with nobody refreshing a thing.

The whole ward, one glance.
A nurse opens the shift and sees the whole ward: every patient, the bed they are in, how many days they have been there, and what needs doing. The file, a bed move or a transfer is one click from every row. No register, no walking the corridor to count.
- Day count on every patient. The stay counts itself, every morning.
- Transfers both sides agree to. A move to another ward goes through a request and accept inbox, and the receiving ward's nurse says yes and picks the bed before anyone is wheeled anywhere. A bed change within the ward is one step, with the reason logged.
IPD · 03
The care plan becomes the shift.
The doctor publishes a care plan and Cliniqi turns it into a timed task list for the nurses on that ward: medicines, vitals, procedures, supplies, each with its own due time. A task that slips past its time flags itself. Nothing rides on memory or a scribbled sheet.
- Timed tasks, not memory. Every order on the plan is a task with a clock on it, and the shift works the list top to bottom.
- Per dose, on the record. The medicine chart captures every dose as given, held, refused or missed, with the time and the nurse who gave it.
- A witness for high-risk doses. High-risk medicines ask for a second nurse to witness at the bedside before the dose is recorded.
- PublishedBy the doctor
- Tasks appearTimed, on the ward
- Late? FlaggedNobody has to notice
- WitnessedHigh-risk dose
- On the billAs it is given

Rounds with a worklist, not a guess.
The attending opens the round to a worklist of their own unit's patients: who is where, who is due for review, whose discharge is waiting on their signature. Every patient belongs to the clinical unit that admitted them, so each doctor's round shows exactly their unit's patients. Unit rosters decide who covers which ward, day by day, so coverage is never a corridor conversation.
- Notes and orders from the bedside. Written at the bed, in the chart, in the moment. Notes take dictation in Hindi, English and other Indian languages, like everywhere else in Cliniqi.
- Orders that go to work. Medicines and services ordered on the round go onto the care plan, become timed nurse tasks on that ward once published, and bill themselves when given. Tests go straight to the lab and the bill.
- Rosters, not assumptions. The day's unit roster tells the ward exactly which doctors are theirs today.
- Each doctor, their own patients. Every patient carries their admitting unit, and the operating unit after surgery, so each doctor's round lists exactly their own patients, even on a shared ward.

Wards and beds the way your hospital is actually built.
No two hospitals are laid out the same, so Cliniqi does not pretend they are. Your own team shapes the ward structure from the back office, and changes it when the hospital changes, without a vendor ticket.
- Ward types. Every ward is a general ward, an ICU or a recovery and step-down ward, named for whatever your floors actually hold: maternity, paediatrics, ortho.
- Bed types with their own charges. Each bed type carries its own daily charge, and the bill follows the bed the patient is in.
- Multi-unit wards. One physical ward shared by more than one clinical unit, without confusion over whose patient is whose.
The ward, live
The bed that needs someone
turns red by itself.
Vitals recorded at the bedside and tasks that run late colour the floor plan on their own, so the whole ward, or the whole ICU, sees which bed needs someone now.
ICU
- Vitals recordedAt the bedside
- Bed turns redLow SpO₂, flagged
- A task runs lateOverdue, on the tile
- Back to blueOnce rechecked
A floor plan that matches the floor
The board can mirror the physical ward, so you find bed 12 the way you walk to it, and see occupied beds, empty beds and beds that need attention at a glance.
ICU on the wall
The live floor plan puts vitals and alerts for the whole ICU on a wall screen, bed by bed. It refreshes every 30 seconds on its own.
What turns a bed red
SpO₂ below 92%, a pulse under 50 or over 120, systolic BP under 90 or over 180, a temperature of 38 °C or more or under 35 °C, or a task past its time.
Shift change and the last day
Nothing dropped between shifts.
Nothing loose on the last day.
Wards lose things at two moments: the change of shift and the discharge. Cliniqi turns both into a sign-off that someone has to give.
Change of shift
A handover that is accepted.
At change of shift the outgoing nurse hands their tasks to the incoming nurse, who accepts them formally, so nothing is dropped between shifts.
- A request, not a hope. Tasks or a whole patient go to a named nurse, for today, the next few days or the whole stay. Nothing moves until that nurse accepts.
- On the file. Every accepted handover is logged on the patient's file.
The night shift does not inherit a rumour. It accepts a list.
Dressing soaked at 6 pm, changed once. Check sugar before dinner.
- Tasks pickedThree, one patient
- Request sentNamed nurse, a note
- WaitingNothing has moved yet
- AcceptedOn the incoming list
- LoggedOn the patient file
The last day
Discharge is a sign-off, not a scramble.
A patient leaves only when three people say the stay is complete: the doctor, the nursing side and billing. Each signs off on their own part, in the open, so the last day is a handshake instead of a hunt for loose ends.
- Doctor AI Reviews and signs the discharge summary, drafted by AI from the whole stay, read and corrected by the doctor before it carries a signature.
- Nursing. Confirms the ward's side is closed: handover done and medicines reconciled. Any task still open is closed off automatically when the discharge completes, and noted on the file.
- Billing. Settles a bill with no surprises in it: the family has seen the dues, item by item, long before the last day.
- DoctorAI draft, edited, signed
- NursingHandover, medicines
- BillingSettled, signed
- ReleasedBed to cleaning
Beds are money
Everything on the ward prices itself.
An inpatient day is full of small charges that leak when they live on paper chits. On the ward, every service and every consumable bills itself the moment it happens, at the price that stood when it was ordered.
- Timed serviceStart, then End
- On the billFor the time it ran
- Rate changesOld line stays
- Bed dayAdded each day
Services with real pricing
Flat-rate or per-time, your choice per service. The price locks at order time, so a mid-stay rate revision never rewrites an old order, and duration-based services, like oxygen, bill for the hours they actually ran.
Supplies at the bedside
A consumable issued to a patient lands straight on the admission bill: no chit, no end-of-stay reconstruction. Stock itself lives with Pharmacy & Supplies.
Ayushman on the ward
Scheme patients sit on their own list with the package, the rate and the length of stay, exportable to Excel for the scheme desk, whenever they ask.
How it connects
What comes in,
what goes out.
The ward sits in the middle of the hospital. Patients arrive from the consult room, the front desk and the theatre, and the ward's orders flow on to the laboratory, pharmacy, theatre and billing, all on the same record.
- Comes inOPD, desk or theatre
- The stayPlan, tasks, rounds
- Goes outLab, pharmacy, OT, billing
Built into every shift
The small rules
that keep a ward honest.
Emergencies skip the queue
Direct admits go straight to a bed. A walk-in, emergency or planned-surgery patient with no OPD visit is picked, given a bed and admitted in one pass.
One ward per nurse
One ward per nurse per shift, with head-nurse oversight. The head nurse hands each admitted patient to a nurse, so every bed has a name against it.
Overdue tasks raise their hand
A late task flags itself, and the head nurse sees it before the doctor's round does.
