Common skills are abilities that can be trained into any staff member, such as speed, general diagnosis, or hygiene. These are versatile and can improve overall hospital efficiency.
Staff Traits
Staff traits are inherent characteristics that can be positive or negative, affecting a staff member's performance, happiness, or interactions. Examples include 'Fast Learner' or 'Lazy'.
Training Tips
Invest in training academies to level up your staff's skills. Higher skill levels mean faster and more accurate diagnoses and treatments. Prioritize training for doctors and nurses in their primary roles.
GP Queues
Efficiently manage GP queues by ensuring enough GP offices are available and that patients are not waiting excessively long. Overcrowded GP queues can lead to patient dissatisfaction.
Hospital Level Snowballing
Hospital level snowballing refers to the process of building upon early successes to create a larger, more profitable, and more efficient hospital. This involves reinvesting profits into better equipment, more staff, and expanded facilities.
Expansion Strategy
Plan your expansion by considering the needs of new levels and the types of illnesses you are likely to encounter. Ensure you have the necessary rooms and staff trained for these challenges.
Examples in Efficiency
Efficiency can be improved by optimizing room placement, ensuring staff have short travel times to their workstations, and minimizing patient waiting times. Well-trained staff also contribute significantly to efficiency.
Room Prestige
Room prestige is a measure of how attractive and well-decorated a room is. Higher prestige can improve patient happiness and attract more patients.
Patient Happiness
Patient happiness is influenced by waiting times, cure rates, room environments, and staff interactions. Keeping patients happy is essential for achieving higher star ratings.
The Great Patient Purge
The Great Patient Purge is a strategy where you dismiss patients who are unlikely to be cured or who are causing significant issues, freeing up resources for more treatable cases. This is a drastic measure and should be used cautiously.
