Abstract
This work addresses experience with a simulation model of a full service cancer treatment center. The objective was to analyze patient flow throughout the unit, evaluate the impact of alternative floor layouts, using different scheduling options and to analyze resources and patient flow requirements of a new building. The simulation model provided strong justification to relocate the center’s laboratory and pharmacy as well as identifying changes in scheduling procedures that would allow a 30% increase in patient throughput with the same resources. The new building analysis identified a waiting room area that was too small for the increased patient flow.
