Abstract

In this work, using a Behavioural Operational Research (BOR) perspective, we develop a model for the Home Health Care Nurse Scheduling Problem (HHCNSP) with application to renal patients taking Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) at their own homes as treatment for their Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in the UK. The modelling framework presented in this paper can be extended to much wider spectra of scheduling problems concerning patients with different long-term conditions in future work.
