A multi-objective mathematical model for nurse scheduling problem with hybrid DEA and augmented ε-constraint method: A case study
The efficient management of nursing personnel is of vital importance in a hospital’s environment comprising a vast share of the hospital’s operational costs. In the nurse scheduling problem (NSP), the target is to allocate shifts to the nurses in order to satisfy the hospital’s demand during the planning horizon by considering different objective functions. This paper presents a multi-objective...
متن کاملA Pareto-based search methodology for multi-objective nurse scheduling
In this paper, we propose a search technique for nurse scheduling, which deals with it as a multi-objective problem. For each nurse, we first randomly generate a set of legal shift patterns which satisfy all shift-related hard constraints. We then employ an adaptive heuristic to quickly find a solution with the least number of violations on the coverage-related hard constraint by assigning one ...

متن کاملScheduling Nurse Shifts Using Goal Programming Based on Nurse Preferences: A Case Study in an Emergency Department
Nowadays, nurses scheduling is one of the most important challenges with which health care centers are encountered. The significance of nurses’ work quality has led researchers to be concerned about scheduling problems, which have an impact on nurses’ performance. Observing the interests of hospital and patients, providing their satisfaction, and meeting their needs are among the main objective...
متن کاملMaximizing the nurses’ preferences in nurse scheduling problem: mathematical modeling and a meta-heuristic algorithm
The nurse scheduling problem (NSP) has received a great amount of attention in recent years. In the NSP, the goal is to assign shifts to the nurses in order to satisfy the hospital’s demand during the planning horizon by considering different objective functions. In this research, we focus on maximizing the nurses’ preferences for working shifts and weekends off by considering several important...
