    Area of Science:

    • Nursing informatics
    • Operations research

    Background:

    • Developing an expert system for nurse scheduling requires understanding the stability of nurse preferences.
    • Frequent changes in preferences would hinder the feasibility of automated scheduling systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the reliability and stability of nurses' schedule preferences over time.
    • To determine if nurses' preferences are consistent enough for an expert scheduling system.

    Main Methods:

    • The study analyzed the consistency of nurse schedule preferences.
    • Cluster analysis was employed to group nurses with similar preferences.

    Main Results:

    • Most nurses demonstrated consistent schedule preferences over a 3- to 6-month period.

  • Cluster analysis successfully grouped nurses based on their tour preferences, indicating identifiable patterns.

    • Conclusions:

    • Nurse schedule preferences are sufficiently stable for developing expert scheduling systems.
    • The findings support the feasibility of implementing automated systems that consider individual nurse preferences.
