Application of Queuing Model in the Hospital Pharmacy Unit-A Case Study

Abstract

The Objective Of This Study Was To Analyze Various Design Alternatives In Determining The Manpower Requirements Needed To Run A Hospital’s Pharmacy Unit Efficiently. Several Queuing Models Are Used For This Analysis. This Study Enable The Hospital Administration In Understanding And Effectively Using The Manpower Available In Reducing The Waiting Times Of Prescription Orders Under Different Conditions. Three Different Operating Procedures Were Evaluated In Order To Give A Complete Analysis Of The Prescription Order Process Taking Place In The Pharmacy Unit. These Were A Multiple Server Queuing Model With No Priorities, A Priority Discipline Queuing Model Without And With Pre-Emptive Service.
