No one should die looking for a hospital bed.
In an emergency, “no bed” is rarely about beds. It's oxygen, ICU, blood, a surgeon on call. NoBed.ai shows which hospitals across Ghana can actually receive a patient right now, and routes them there.
In a life-threatening emergency, call 112 first.

The beds may exist. The visibility does not.
No Bed Syndrome is rarely a pure shortage. It is a coordination failure. No one can see, in the moment, which hospital can actually take the patient.
- 11:40 PMHospital A: No ICU bed
- 12:25 AMHospital B: Theatre full
- 1:10 AMHospital C: Oxygen low
- 1:55 AMStill searching…
Every hospital gate is another gamble with time no one has.
- 1Nearest facility with a free, functional ICU bed found, instantly.
- 2Bed confirmed and held at the receiving hospital.
- 3Ambulance routed with live turn-by-turn guidance.
- 4Referral tracked end-to-end until the patient arrives.
One search. Minutes, not hours.
From capacity report to confirmed bed.
Hospitals update capacity
Charge nurses and admins report beds, ICU, oxygen, staffing, imaging and theatre, from a dashboard or by SMS.
The system verifies & calculates
Functional capacity is computed, freshness is tracked, and each facility gets an honest status, never a false green.
Families & ambulance teams search
Search by location and the care actually needed, whether trauma, ICU or obstetrics, not just an empty mattress.
Referrals are confirmed & tracked
The receiving hospital confirms and holds a bed; the transfer is routed and tracked until the patient arrives.
This is the actual product.
Real screens from the live demo: the operational dashboard, the Ghana map, SMS access, and per-facility referral guidance.
Live Capacity Dashboard
→Operational status for every facility: beds, ICU, oxygen, staff, imaging, theatre.
Ghana Hospital Map
→Colour-coded pins by real, functional capacity across all regions.
SMS Short Code Access
→Text a short code for the nearest facilities. Works with no internet.
Referral Guidance & Tracking
→Resource breakdown, service-specific acceptance, and referral guidance per facility.
One live picture, five frontlines.
Know which hospital can actually take your patient before you leave the house, on any phone.
Route to a facility with real, functional capacity the first time, with no dead-end transfers.
Broadcast true capacity, stop receiving referrals you can't take, and decongest the emergency ward.
See national pressure live, and find where ICU and functional capacity is missing.
Track facilities in your region, spot stale reporting, and coordinate referrals across districts.
Works even without a smartphone.
The people closest to an emergency often have the least connectivity. Text a short code and get the nearest facilities that can actually receive the patient, on any phone, on any network.
- ✓Nearest facilities ranked by real capacity
- ✓Bed type and service-specific guidance
- ✓Updates accepted only from registered facility numbers
Hospital updates accepted only from registered facility numbers.
Built to be trusted with the worst nights.
A capacity map is only useful if people can believe it. So we are explicit about data, privacy and limits.
Capacity figures here are seeded demonstration data, never presented as live hospital status.
The platform stores operational capacity, not patient medical records.
Referrals use anonymised patient references only, with no identifiable patient data.
Eight roles, ten permissions. Capacity edits are gated to verified facility staff.
Every capacity change, referral and login is recorded with actor and timestamp.
Designed to align with the Ghana Data Protection Act, 2012.
Verified, self-reported and stale states make the trustworthiness of every number visible.
In a life-threatening emergency, call 112. NoBed.ai guides where to go. It is not dispatch.

Help Ghana end No Bed Syndrome.
The visibility layer is built. What it needs now is hospitals, partners, and hands to take it live.
In a life-threatening emergency, call 112 first. noBed.ai helps you choose where to go. It does not replace emergency dispatch.
