Abstract
⺠We considered the staffing problem in English emergency departments. ⺠We combined queueing and simulation models to search for minimal staffing profiles. ⺠Applying the method to a generic ED shows that improvements can be made even without increase in total staff-hours. ⺠Improvements arise as the result of matching staffing levels closely with demand.
