Enhancing the Patient Care Process while Eliminating Waste and Lowering Costs
Description
Lean healthcare focuses on reducing waste, enhancing patient outcomes, and lowering operational costs. By engaging everyone—from physicians and nurses to administrative staff and executives—this approach seeks to remove anything that does not add value to the patient.
At Toyota assembly plants, frontline workers are given exceptional support: tools, materials, and systems are perfectly aligned so that employees can focus solely on the job in front of them. While cars are important, patients are more so—yet many healthcare systems fall short in providing that same level of support to their caregivers.
This book draws a powerful comparison between Toyota's world-class production model and modern healthcare environments. It introduces the 7 classic types of waste (plus one more specific to healthcare) and explains how to identify, eliminate, and prevent them.
Ideal for:
Healthcare professionals
