Influenza
OVERVIEW
The motivation for this project was the fact that the United States has an influenza season where more people than usual suffer from the flu. Some people, particularly those in vulnerable populations, develop serious complications and end up in the hospital. Hospitals and clinics need additional staff to adequately treat these extra patients. With medical staffing agencies such as ourselves providing this temporary staffing.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this project was to determine when to send medical staff, and how many to each state.
