Correct grammar

I work on wards and it is important that I liaise with the ward staff to facilitate discharges. When I visit wards, I want to ask who is going home to facilitate the discharge. Which one is more appropriate grammatically:

Any more discharges?

Or

Any other discharges?

Obviously I have asked them first:

Any one or anybody going home today?
