Exercise:
Proposal: The hospital.
A hospital, that is open 24 hours, is providing service for planned visits and urgent visits. The urgent visits arrivals follow an exponential distribution of 10 minutes, while the planned visits follow a constant distribution of 20 minutes.
There are two types of doctors, those that are in the urgent service and those who are in the planned visits service. The time needed to attend to the patients is about 10 minutes following an exponential distribution. The planned visits last from 10:00 to 20:00,
We are analyzing the behavior of the hospital in two situations:
1) A saturation scenario due to the increase in the number of visits. Consider an increase in the number of patients proportional to the number of urgent visits we have in the base scenario.
2) A saturation scenario due to the increase in the number of medical leave of health personnel.
We want to test the robustness of the system to understand at what level this saturation will cause disfunction in the hospital. To do so first analyze the number of doctors needed to support the stationary process, then from this baseline, do the analysis.
Questions
Q1 Define clearly the goals of the analysis, explain why you will develop the model, and prepare the Validation and Verification process you will follow.
Q2 Develop a conceptual model of the proposed system. Define the hypotheses you use, simplify the model if needed. The goal is to analyze the status of the hospital. We want to optimize the number of doctors in all the services to provide a good service. What if the doctors can provide service to any patient?
Note: the information provided in the system description may be incomplete, use hypotheses.
Q3 Use SIMIO to code the model. Prepare an experiment and analyze the results obtained.
