The challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic have placed a significant strain on the mental health of health-care workers. To help prevent burnout among health-care workers, researchers at Lakehead University partnered with Mesh Scheduling Inc. – an Ontario-based artificial intelligence (AI) company specializing in socially intelligent staff scheduling – to leverage an AI powered staff scheduler to help assign and delegate tasks and shifts in the health-care sector.
The platform can schedule thousands of shifts in complex settings within minutes, and in doing so, helps eliminate over-scheduling staff, restricts unnecessary contact among staff handling COVID-19 patients and improves patient access to timely health-care needs.
