Hi Team
I need to calculate the Average Length of Stay for a children who are treated at a OPD Nutrition Centre. These children are NOT inpatients, they are generally seen every week and assessed for weight growth (hopefully). After a few weeks they exit the programme, either by recovery, death, non responsive, defaulter or transferred out.
Problem: Do I use Children enrolled that month or Child in care month end as the numerator or how do I calculate a inpatient day equivalent?
Denominator: Children who have been separated (discharged etc) from the program
Any insights will be welcomed
Thanks
Norah
