OR scheduling

Operating Room (OR) scheduling involves planning and assigning specific times and resources for surgeries in a hospital. The goal is to efficiently use OR facilities, minimize patient wait times, and ensure smooth workflows for medical teams. This process considers factors like surgery urgency, duration estimates, staffing, and equipment needs. Effective OR scheduling helps optimize hospital capacity, reduce cancellations, and improve patient care by ensuring surgeries are performed promptly and resources are utilized effectively.
