An overview of demand and capacity planning

Update: We are finalising details for additional sessions later in the year. Please select the "Update me about sessions later in 2023"  ticket if you'd like further information, once this is available.

This session, which not be recorded, will provide an overview of demand and capacity (D&C) modelling, and how you can use this to support service planning. We will be covering:

• Background of D&C, and how this can be useful
• Overview of the principles of modelling
• Broad overview of technical principles, such as percentiles and waiting list sizes, their relevance and application in D&C modelling
• An overview of the models developed by the Demand and Capacity team, and their application

You can join us on Tuesday 21st March 2023 9.30am - 12.00pmOR Monday 17th April 2023 2pm - 4.30pm. Joining instructions will be sent closer to the time.

In March we will be joined by Wendy Rees, Divisional Director of Operations, Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust and in April we will be joined by Andrew Hateley,  General Manager (Countywide Planned Care), Midland Partnership NHS Foundation Trust to give their operational perspective on implementing Demand and capacity planning.

Our intention is to equip you with the knowledge required to embark on, or further your D&C journey in your own services. No prior knowledge of D&C is needed, or expected.

The session is aimed at NHS colleagues involved in supporting service planning, including:

• Operational service managers
• Information / performance analysts
• Colleagues involved in service improvement and project management
• Clinicians
  
  

The above is not an exhaustive list, and we welcome anyone with an interest in demand and capacity planning to join us in either January or February.
