David Gillinson, Chief Data Scientist at StaffSked, talks to Dr. Jesse Pines, the Director of Urgent Matters and a Professor of Health Policy and Emergency Medicine at The George Washington University. StaffSked is trying to utilize new software and techniques for optimizing the various levels of staffing in emergency departments. ED utilization is inconsistent, so overstaffing will be costly for the hospital, while understaffing could be a disaster for patient care. By utilizing modeling software and other engineering theories, StaffSked is able to reduce a hospital's staffing costs while still making sure they are adequately prepared to handle the patient load.
