Data table Area A Entrance (1) Lab test/EKG (5) Area E Snow-Bird Hospital is a small emergency-oriented facility located in a popular ski resort in Northern Michigan. Its new administrator, Mary Lord, decides to reorganize the hospital using the process-layout method she studied in business school. The only physical restriction perceived by Lord is the need to keep the entrance/initial processing room in its current location. All other departments or rooms (each of 10 feet square) can be moved if layout analysis indicates a move would be beneficial. Click the icon to view the improvement made by Lord.

Is further improvement possible? If so, what is it?

Nonadjacent departments, such as the entrance and exam room 2 (now in area C) or the entrance and recovery room (area G) are 20 feet apart, and nonadjacent rooms, such as entrance and X-ray (area D), are 30 feet apart. (Hence, 10 feet is considered 10 units of cost, 20 feet is 20 units of cost, and 30 feet is 30 units of cost.) First, establish Snow Bird's current layout. Then, by analyzing the current layout, compute patient movement: Total movement = 6,700 feet Lord determined that two useful changes are to switch departments 3 and 5 and to interchange departments 4 and 6. This change would result in the schematic shown the following figure. Entrance (1) Exam room 2 (3) Exam room 1 (2) X-ray (4) Lab test/EKG (5) Operating room (6) Recovery room Cast-setting room (7) (8) Total movement = (100 x 10') + (100 x 10') + (50 x 10') + (20 10') +(30 x 10') + (30 x 20)+ (20 x 10) + (20x20) + (20 x 10') + (10x10') + (3010) = 4,800 feet -
