AI-Based Decision Tool to Forecast, Optimize and Allocate Paramedic Resources
The Challenge
Urgences-santé is Quebec’s only public prehospital emergency service organization. The project aims to equip Urgences-santé with a single AI-powered decision-support tool to improve staffing efficiency in the mid-term, avoid service gaps in the short term and mitigate service gaps in the near term. At the core, the solution will predict the demand for emergency care at these horizons, and propose solutions for maintaining target levels of service while reducing costs.
