The operating room (OR) is one of the most demanding departments in Winnipeg Health Science Center (WHSC). The problems faced to the OR are the long waiting list of patients and the inefficient utilization of human resources and facilities. The OR needs to treat a large variety of patient types versatility and dynamically. A discrete event simulation tool is used for modeling the OR operation. The major work involving in this research includes data collection, simulation modeling, model validation and output analysis. The initial results have shown the simulation potential in the performance improvement of healthcare systems
