operations management

 Read and analyze the capacity data provided with the Shouldice Hospital case. In the case, hospital management is faced with two options: (1) add one more operating day to the hospital’s schedule, or (2) add a second floor to the hospital, increasing bed capacity by 50%. Using the information provided with the case on pages 87-88 of the textbook as well as the completed spreadsheet data provided with this packet, write a two-three page business case/essay to support your recommendation. Include in your essay a summary of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of Shouldice Hospital’s business operations. Be sure to reference specific data from the case and attachments to support your conclusions.
