A patient flow system and method manages patients in a medical facility by tagging patients, medical staff, and medical assets with wireless locator tags, and assigning a patient flow pattern to each patient. As the patient moves throughout the medical facility, the patient tag sends location information to a management computer to track the patient's progress through the patient flow pattern. The patient's next state is determined by analyzing the patient's location as well as the patient's current and previous states.
