Six Sigma in healthcare training
What is Six Sigma? Six Sigma is a data-driven methodology for eliminating defects in any process, even healthcare processes. Create patient-centered experiences with positive outcomes by implementing Six Sigma in your healthcare organization! GBMP Healthcare specializes in Lean Six Sigma training and Lean Six Sigma certification of employees from clinics, ORs, ERs, pharmacies, skilled nursing care facilities and other critical healthcare settings.
Six Sigma originated at Motorola where product field failures were found to be highly correlated to massive variation in their internal processes. Allied Signal followed suit broadening the use of Six Sigma to non-manufacturing areas, seizing the opportunity to use it as a management tool. General Electric's Jack Welch is the most widely known proponent of Six Sigma who, in 1996, set about to save hundreds of millions of dollars and change the entire corporate culture of one of America's largest and most respected corporations.
The goal of Six Sigma is the elimination of process variation. Typical applications of Six Sigma address variation caused by poor design, instability, unreliable measurement systems, insufficient process capability or non-standardized skills and behaviors. A person or team with an understanding of Six Sigma is capable of resolving these problems and effecting real change - from making data-driven decisions, to meeting patient needs, accurately measuring processes, reducing variation, predicting future performance, assessing actions and keeping processes under control!
Why add Six Sigma to your Excellence Initiative?
Combining Six Sigma variation reduction, statistical analysis and problem solving tools with Lean Manufacturing Methodology and countermeasures enables employee teams to build Six Sigma Process Maps identify process inputs that drive patient outcomes and reveal bottlenecks and throughput issues. And because it will help you improve reliability and repeat-ability in your processes, to avoid the significant costs of poor quality. Combined with a Continuous Improvement effort, Six Sigma results for your company can be outstanding. Here is just one of many case studies where GBMP clients saved MILLIONS OF DOLLARS after making a small investment in a Six Sigma education for some of their employees.
