Part of Using AI to find optimal placement schedules for nursing students
What's next
The NHS AI Lab Skunkworks team has released the code from the project on GitHub to demonstrate how the tool might work, using generated fake data.
A pilot is planned to evaluate how well the tool works in practice, working with Imperial College Healthcare Trust during a future student intake. Following this pilot, and an evaluation exercise, improvements will be identified and implemented in a subsequent phase of work.
Who was involved
This project was a collaboration between the NHS AI Lab Skunkworks, within the Transformation Directorate at NHS England, and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.
NHS AI Lab Skunkworks is a team of data scientists, engineers and project leaders who support the health and social care community to rapidly progress ideas from the conceptual stage to a proof of concept.
