Shoppers Drug Mart study to test transitional care model
Canada's Shoppers Drug Mart is conducting a pilot project to help patients avoid medication errors and reduce hospital readmissions.
This paper discusses eight projects that were conducted by students over a one-month period at a large amusement park. Many of the findings of the students resulted from their insights having worked in a specific area for a short time and having collected data intensively over a one-week period. The base case simulation models were validated by comparison to actual data, and one or more alternatives were considered.
