Getting Lean Video- Children’s Hospital of Saskatchewan
A key ingredient of quality healthcare is the care facility itself. Recognizing this, Saskatoon Health Region brings Lean process into the design phase of the new Children’s Hospital of Saskatchewan, due for completion in 2015. The result will be a facility designed to optimize patient flow, marking a departure from the traditional departmental planning approach.
“Because of the challenges healthcare is facing, there is a push to build patient-focused centres that support better and quicker service with the same resources,” says Larry Coté, President of Lean Advisors, who are providing Lean expertise on the project.
