Lean Healthcare
With today's global market, and the increasing financial challenges healthcare organizations face, many are finding they have fewer and fewer chances of survival, unless they can somehow start managing inefficiencies. It has been estimated that our healthcare systems today are practicing at an average rate of 60-65% waste. Only 35-40% of the services provided are value-added. Lean Healthcare can help change those statistics. Lean Healthcare is a continuous process improvement: Eliminating waste, increasing capacity, building efficiencies: it gives healthcare workers the ability to focus on the needs of the patient first, and the ability to empower the front-line staff. It is a common sense approach to bring value back to our work.
Our Lean Healthcare Program helps healthcare organizations build safety, consistency, cooperation, quality and better bottom line performance into their day-to-day operations by training and empowering leadership and staff to use their skills and experience in ever-expanding ways. It helps build employee achievement and satisfaction for higher retention rates, and creates a culture of continuous improvement that will continue to add to the bottom line for years to come. It is a common sense approach to bringing value back to your work Ultimately, it is about cultural transformation that can change the way medicine is practiced today.
