First, I would collect all of the information regarding the amount of admissions in the hospitals, build an analysis regarding this information in which I explain in a very precise and easy manner the amount of beds required according to the admissions and how long these people stay in the hospital premises. Finally, I would organize this analysis in a report and deliver it to the governor.
