Bir Bölge Hastanesi için Bulanık TOPSIS Yöntemi ile Sağlık Hizmeti Tesis Yerleşimi Seçimi Problemi

Şirketler için en önemli kararlardan birisi olarak, tesis yerleşimi çok kriterli bir karar verme (ÇKKV) problemi olarak düşünülebilir. Fakat, tesis yerleşimi sadece şirketler için önemli değildir, aynı şekilde, sağlık hizmetindeki tesis yerleşimi kararları da çok önemlidir. Hatta, sağlık hizmeti tesislerinde insan hayatı söz konusu olduğu için, bu alandaki tesis yerleşimi kararları hayati derecede önemlidir. Diğer tesis yerleşimi problemlerinde olduğu gibi, sağlık hizmeti tesislerinin yerleşimi probleminde de dikkate alınması gereken kriterler vardır ve bu alandaki yöneticilerin bu kriterler altında alternatifleri değerlendirmesi gerekir. Bu süreç belirsizlikleri içerdiğinden dolayı, daha doğru sonuçlara ulaşmak için bu sürece bulanık mantığı ilave etmek uygun olacaktır. Bu doğrultuda, bu çalışmada, sağlık hizmeti tesis yerleşimi değerlendirmesi için çok kriterli bulanık bir yaklaşım sunulmuştur. Çalışma dahilinde, belirlenen kriterler çerçevesinde bulanık bir TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) yaklaşımı sunulmuştur ve önerilen yaklaşım Adana ilindeki bir bölge hastanesi yer seçimi vaka çalışması üzerinde uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçların, karar vericilere bu alandaki gelecekteki kararları için yararlı bir kaynak olması beklenmektedir.

A Healthcare Facility Location Selection Problem with Fuzzy TOPSIS Method for a Regional Hospital

As being a significant determination for companies, facility location can be regarded as a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM)problem. Nonetheless, facility location is not significant merely in companies, likewise, facility location decisions in healthcare aresignificant, as well. Furthermore, since human life is the point in healthcare facilities, facility location decisions in this field are vitallyimportant. As are in other facility location problems, there are multiple criteria to be taken into consideration in health care facilitylocation problems and managers in this area should evaluate alternatives under these criteria. Since this process includes uncertainties,it is suitable to integrate fuzzy logic to this process to obtain more accurate results. In line with this, in this study, a fuzzy approachwith multi criteria is presented with regard to the evaluation of healthcare facility location. Within the study, in the framework ofspecified criteria, a fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) approach is suggested and theproposed approach is performed at a case study for regional hospital location selection in Adana province. The acquired results areexpected to be a useful resource to the future decisions in this area for decision makers.
