Healthcare Simulation
Simcad Pro Health - Simulation Benefits in Healthcare

Healthcare Simulation Software,

Simcad Pro Health, provides simulation and modeling solutions for all the elements of your healthcare setting. Test the impact of process improvement ideas in a virtual environment, without the risk of implementing unproven ideas to the actual patient flow.

Prove out and validate improvements to the ED Emergency Department , OR Operating Room Department, Radiology, labs, bed allocation and internal supply chain and play the “what-if” game- analyze scenarios, and identify changes to determine both the ROI Return On Investment and best path forward prior to spending time, money, and limited resources on untested changes. Simulation provides both 2D and 3D animations to convey ideas, while detailed analytics and value stream mapping generate the required ROI calculation for each improvement.

OR Optimization Case Study

 

OR Layout - The layout will be used to determine impact of travel distances, congestion, and room location on the overall flow efficiency. Room Schedule, Specialty, and Capacity - Define room specialty assignments along with potential operation grouping that it can perform. A set of general guidelines needs to be defined.

OR Simulation Model

  • Build a validated model based on collected data OR Layout
  • Room Specialty Schedule
  • Provider Schedule
  • Patient Arrival Time
  • Surgery Duration
Operating Department Simulation Case Study

The Emergency Department is a critical area within the Healthcare Industry. It is also one of the most unpredictable environments. Excessive wait times within the Emergency Department can be tolling on the patient both physically and emotionally, affecting the morale of the patients ...

One of the most unpredictable environments in the Healthcare Industry is the Emergency Department, ED. We have all been there, spending countless hours in a waiting room only to finally receive medical attention in a hallway, or if you were lucky enough to make it to ...
