Key Tweets from @MarkGraban – Week of October 19, 2015: The Error-Free Hospitals, Non-Error Proofed Faucet
I have a November 1st deadline for submitting the manuscript for the revised 3rd edition of my book Lean Hospitals, so I am probably taking the next week off from blogging. But, I'll return in November. In the meantime…
Here's the latest installment of “Key Tweets,” a post that summarizes some of my tweets (or retweets) from the week, including pictures and other fun stuff. Follow me @MarkGraban and join the fun and the conversation. See the previous installments of Key Tweets here.
