How to Create Arrival Patterns for an Emergency Room in ProcessModel Part 1


In a recent process improvement project, I was required to turn 6 months of arrival information from an emergency room into entries for a simulation model. This is difficult because there is variability from week to week, Mondays are different from Fridays and there is significant variation throughout the day.
