Night shift nurses in ICU are forced to move critically ill patients between rooms at 3-4 AM, often with last-minute notice, causing significant disruption and potential safety risks.
Existing patient placement and bed management systems do not account for ICU-specific factors like equipment needs, nurse assignments, and patient acuity to optimize room assignments proactively.
