LEI Web Seminar on Hospital VSM’s

Value-Stream Improvement for the Office and Services

The Lean Enterprise Institute is giving a free webinar on August 2nd, featuring a hospital that presented at the First Global Lean Healthcare Summit, Hôtel-Dieu Grace Hospital, in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.

This webinar will explain how the Value-Stream Improvement model works by focusing on a case study of it in action at Hôtel-Dieu Grace Hospital, Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Key members of the implementation team, including front-line managers and a senior VP, will describe how Value-Stream Improvement uses mapping as a core improvement tool but incorporates implementation planning, regular review and reflection, and development of standard work – all adapted for non-manufacturing processes that often are difficult to see, measure, and standardize.
