    Lean in Healthcare

    Improving processes to allow clinicians to spend more time with patients.

    Healthcare services

    Today’s healthcare organizations are under pressure to improve the health of their patients as well as the health of their bottom line. As a result, it has become essential for the healthcare and medical industries to develop an approach to improve operational efficiency.

    Lean methods improve quality, safety, and responsiveness while optimizing the use of hospital facilities, aiding with regulatory compliance, reducing costs and promoting growth. By examining current process through the Lean lens, you will learn to identify and remove activities that don’t add value and to eliminate wastes in the workplace.

    • Improve patient safety
    • Reduce infection rates
    • Standardize treatment protocols
    • Mitigate risk
    • Boost facility capacity
    • Reduce changeover time in clinical areas
    • Solve supply chain problems
    • Increase bed availability
    • Smooth patient flow
    • Mentor leaders
    • Reduce staff frustration
    • Develop teamwork
    • Streamline claims processing
    • Improve cash flow
    • Increase patient satisfaction
