Titel: Data-Driven Simulations for More Efficient Ambulance Services

Abstract: An ageing population, urbanisation, technological advances, and limited financial resources require a flexible ambulance service to ensure that resources are used efficiently and fairly. Using historical data and statistical modelling, we have created a digital twin of the ambulance service, which—through large-scale simulations and optimisation—can identify the “best” operational changes for ambulance care. In the seminar, I will share the journey from an early idea to a fully developed decision-support tool for ambulance services, including some statistical and pedagogical challenges, as well as a successful application within the ambulance service in Region Västerbotten.
