If Your Hospital Wants to "Implement #Lean,"

from Lean Blog Audio: Practical Lean Thinking, Psychological Safety, and Continuous Improvement · host Mark Graban

http://leanblog.org/audio143 I've written before about the subject of hospitals "flexing" nurses and employees. I've criticized flexing (or the practice of sending employees home early because patient census is low) and I've pointed out that it's not keeping with "Lean" principles to "save money" by sending people home early.See these posts: Is This The One Question That Determines If You're Truly a Lean-Thinking Hospital?
