I would not "house" all relevantly related methods for that object in it.

Your example of "patient admissions" is a separate object and the
business of patient admissions is the sole responsibility of that
other object.

If take your line of reasoning to it end, you'll end up including
things like which ward(s), the bed(s) in the ward, their GP, attending
physicians, attending nurses, surgeons who operated on them, vital
signs, ordered tests, test results, x-rays, MRIs, sonograms, etc.

Patients move through hospitals, hospitals don't move through
patients. Besides, all this information can be found in their medical
record and that's a separate set of objects which refers to the
patient object.

Keep your objects as simple as possible, but no simpler.
