I'm not sure if FET will be able to help with this as it's not for a class schedule. I help manage a mental health center and patients come in 2-5 days per week for 3-6 hours per day. We have 40 patients and 25 therapists.
Each patient has individual appointments with the therapists each day, and they also attend group therapy sessions. We have 33 group per week with a max of 10 patients each group.
I have a problem of creating a schedule for each patient based on hours available to come in (theirs and their therapists'), not having more than one 1 hour break per day, and having rooms available.
I need to set up the algorithm for patients to their sessions so that there cannot be any conflicts.
Is FET about to assist with this or do you know of another freeware algorithm that might be a better fit? Currently we are setting up the schedules manually using Google calendar every week, and there are changes to the therapists' hours/days available, as well as the patient's having additional doctors appointments or school schedules that we have to work around. It's quite a headache, if you can imagine.
