dc.description.abstract
As we have seen during the SARS-COV-2 pandemic, it is vital to reserve enough intensive care capacities so that both regular and infected patients can be treated. Hospitals have increased their intensive care resources by re-purposing beds and deferring non-vital treatments, thus freeing up medical staff for work in infectious wards or as a backup. However, this re-allocation has been conducted in a best-effort manner, using rough estimates rather than more formal quantitative methods. In our work, we have tried to produce a whole-hospital simulation that allows assessing the effects of capacity re-allocation in regular and pandemic operational contexts. As result, we are able to get a better insight into how many resources are needed and what can be allocated to other purposes.
