Lessons Learned(methodology)
• Process owners need to drive the planning• Participants need to clear calendars• Get more direct care staff involved to
reduce need for ‘spread’• VERY organic process: hard to keep it
small. Important “Incidental findings”• Need “branding” : “What’s a Kaizen?”
Lessons Learned(Sustainability)
• Process owners need to commit to take-away tasks.
• Auditing is a challenge• Ensure agreements in final hour are
reasonable• VERY organic process: hard to keep it
small. • Important “Incidental findings”
Next Steps: Future Focus• Unit leaders meeting to discuss
sustainability plan• Considering using Mini Kaizen
methodology after a Root Cause analysis process to implement recomendations
