Staffing throughout hospitals in the US can be difficult during influenza season since there is a large increase in patient flow during these times. The medical staffing agency that provides as needed staffing for all hospitals and clinics wants to make sure they are allocating their staff so that all areas are adequately staffed to handle the influx of patients during this time. The goal of this analysis is to use historical influenza data to understand staffing needs and create a plan to allocate the staff while meeting the requirements of the agency.
