Operational Simulation · One 24-hour shift in an Emergency Department

Same patient arrivals on both sides — only the staffing level (doctors & treatment rooms) changes

UNDERSTAFFED
Minimal Plan · 4 doctors · 6 treatment rooms
00:00
OPTIMAL STAFFING

ESI-1/2 Resuscitation/Emergency ESI-3 Urgent ESI-4 Less Urgent ESI-5 Non-Urgent
Treatment room (free) Room in use No doctor / no room Moving dot = patient walking the floor ✗ LWBS = left without being seen (walks out)
24 h compressed into ~36 s at default speed · Time-varying arrivals with bimodal peaks (10–14h and 18–22h, ×1.6) · Higher-acuity patients (lower ESI) are seen first · A patient leaves (LWBS) once their wait exceeds patience · Fixed seed: identical result on every reset · Boarding, imaging/lab steps and shift handovers are not visualised
