| Title | Routing and Scheduling in Integrated Continuous HomeCare |
| Participants | Maria Godinho (Principal Investigator) |
| Summary | This year’s research proposal aims to further investigate routing and scheduling problems arising in the context of home health care services, continuing the work initiated in 2023 [1]. Future work will focus on deepening the analysis and systematization of requirements defined by stakeholders, including healthcare professionals, managers, and patients. The objective is to ensure that the proposed optimization model accurately reflects operational constraints, service quality standards, and practical decision-making needs. Special attention will be given to time-related constraints, continuity of care, and resource availability. [1] Godinho, M.T. and Lopes, M.
