This two-day workshop is designed to guide participants through implementing Lean principles in a healthcare environment. It will provide an in-depth explanation of how to use Lean tools and offer tangible examples of their application in the healthcare setting. Learn about Lean methodologies and how to deploy them in your organization. Lean management principles have been used effectively in manufacturing companies for decades, particularly in Japan. To survive in today’s healthcare environment, organizations must deliver high quality patient care while reducing costs, improving quality and enhancing revenue. Derived from the Toyota Production System, Lean provides proven concepts that enable organization to focus on the elimination of non-value added activities, thereby achieving a balance between quality and finance. Lean is a growth strategy, a survival strategy, and an improvement strategy. Lean creates a better working environment where what is supposed to happen does happen, on time, every time.
