About this ranking

Beds in hospitals that are regularly maintained and staffed and immediately available for admitted patients, per 100,000 inhabitants. Includes curative, rehabilitative, long-term and other hospital beds in public and private hospitals (health care provider HP.1). Beds in nursing and residential care facilities are not included.

Countries count beds at the end of the year or as a yearly average, and a few leave out some private or military hospitals; Eurostat flags those values as following a different definition. More beds do not mean better care: countries that treat more patients as day cases or at home need fewer beds.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the regions are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
