About this title

Synopsis

"The same Lean principles that are helping hospitals eliminate waste and improve efficiencies are applicable to individuals working in healthcare. This book not only provides the tools to alleviate the obvious symptoms of inefficiency but also demonstrates how to find the root causes underlying that inefficiency. It presents a practical, step-by-step approach to applying Lean principles to individuals, including real-world examples that illustrate how these principles have been applied in the healthcare industry"--
