Home healthcare service provides daily medical services at patients’ homes.

This paper proposes a new framework integrating the heuristic search and fuzzy logic with knowledge acquisition to develop reliable and effective decision to match qualified staff to offer the service with the minimum cost, under preference consideration and feasible time-slots. The framework is designed based on the hierarchical approach dividing the system into two layers: high and low level.
