Applying simulation approach to streamline hospital operations

Abstract

Simulation Modeling is a tool for manufacturing operations to determine the optimized process layout, inventory level, human resource management, equipment and maintenance scheduling to achieve high utilization. The benefits of simulation study projects include cost reduction, inventory control, productivity improvement and high resource utilization. In this study, the simulation approach was used in the improve of the Cleaning room efficiency for ABC Stomatological Hospital. The study results showed that the new operation parameter combination would increase the operation efficiency.
