Hospitals need to eliminate anything that does not add value to the customer (the patient). They need to undertake a cultural transformation. The move to Lean management is just such a transformation. Lean management focuses on standardization and improving processes and reducing or eliminating waste and unnecessary activities, motion, or waiting. Lean management’s techniques are simple to understand, but putting them into practice takes perseverance.
Our Lean Healthcare Certificate Series is an intense 4-day course that covers the Lean tools and their application in both classroom and hands-on simulation. Moreover, it focuses on the role of the Lean leader and the importance of having a vision for improvement and a strategy for effectively implementing the process of continuous improvement and sustaining it within an organization.
