Developing learning areas to improve and sustain performance, Part 1
from Modern Practice Podcast Hosted by Dr. Tom Villanueva and Vizient Medical Leadership Team
Learning areas have become an effective aspect of high-reliability organizations in healthcare. Employing floor or departmental huddles as the focal point for these learning areas, the experience of the huddles has been augmented and reinforced by bulletin boards and whiteboards. Even more effective is the newest wrinkle in the experience – LENS (Learning & Engagement System) boards, which are dynamic, digitally-based visual boards that can transmit messaging on a 24/7 basis in a designated learning area. On the next three episodes, Tomas discusses learning areas with two expert guests, who will share the rationale behind them and how to make them work for you.
