Your subqueries return more than 1 row. I think you you need something like :

 SELECT COUNT(*) AS total, 
 COUNT(CASE WHEN respatient_id > 0 THEN 1 END) AS occupied_beds,
 COUNT(CASE WHEN respatient_id IS NULL THEN 1 END) AS free_beds          
 FROM   bed 
 GROUP  BY cc_name

You can also try to use WITH ROLLUP + pivoting (mostly for learning purposes, it's a much longer query ) :

SELECT cc_name, 
MAX(CASE 
 WHEN num_1 = 1 THEN tot_num END) AS free_beds,

MAX(CASE 
 WHEN num_1 = 2 THEN tot_num END) AS occupied_beds,

MAX(CASE 
 WHEN num_1 = IS NULL THEN tot_num END) AS total

FROM
(SELECT cc_name, CASE 
WHEN respatient_id > 0 THEN 1
WHEN respatient_id IS NULL THEN 2
ELSE 3 END as num_1,
COUNT(*) as tot_num
FROM  bed
WHERE 
CASE 
WHEN respatient_id > 0 THEN 1
WHEN respatient_id IS NULL THEN 2
ELSE 3 END != 3
GROUP BY cc_name,
num_1 WITH ROLLUP)A
GROUP BY cc_name
