Planning of Treatment at Rehabilitation Clinics Using a Two Stage Mixed-Integer Programming Approach

This thesis presents a method for planning patient intake and assignment of treatment personnel at rehabilitative care clinics. The rehabilitation process requires patients to undergo a series of treatments spanning several weeks, requiring therapists of different disciplines. We have developed a two stage mixed-integer programming model which plans when each admitted patient will receive treatment and assigns therapists. In addition, the model provides support to decide when to admit new patients and when to hire additional staff in order to maximise the clinic’s patient throughput. Numerical results based on a real rehabilitation clinic are presented and discussed.
