Abstract

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is prevalent in children and adolescents, often treated with medication. Monitoring medication, however, strains healthcare resources, prompting exploration of remote monitoring. In this paper, we address the problem of locating hubs for healthcare assistants to travel to schools to cover the demand of a remote monitoring service for pupils with ADHD. We propose a facility location problem approach to decide on the number of hubs for healthcare assistants and where to locate them in order to cover the demand for remote monitoring in secondary schools in Wales, UK. The results provide insights into how many hub locations are needed to cover the demand. Thus, our mathematical modelling approach can help policy makers efficiently plan resources and help children and adolescents with ADHD to be monitored more effectively.
