The problem

Flexible schedules help keep staff, but often clash with clinic staffing needs, and by hand it's hard to balance fairness with daily headcount.

What to prepare

  • A spreadsheet

How to do it

  1. 1

    Write the constraints as a list

    How many people each area needs per day, each person's hours (FTE), role restrictions and who wants 4×10.

  2. 2

    Have it generate 2–3 schedules

    Prompt
  3. 3

    Check every item; people decide

    In the study, the AI's options had no backup for time off. A human check caught that.
