Abstract: | This research investigates the impact of using an improved tactical staff planning, which serves as a guideline for the required number of nurses every for every day of the week. We developed a two phase model that generates an improved tactical staff planning using the forecasted patient arrivals as an input. The improved tactical staff planning is tailored to current patient demand and therefore increases the total workload and reduces the number of nurses required by distributing the available capacity more efficiently. |
