Managing A Patient Flow: A Focus on Critical Processes
Changes that maximize the flow of patients in hospitals also return such benefits as reductions in overcrowding of major services, improvement in nurse staffing and morale, and enhanced financial performance. Hospital leaders who decide to improve patient flow often face challenges and traditions that can be obstacles to their success. This video identifies the key challenges and factors that are proving to provide a high return on investment for those leaders who apply Dr. Eugene Litvak’s concepts and methods to patient flow.
As a result of this program, participants will be better able to:
Learn from organizations who are reducing census variability by applying the concepts pioneered by Dr. Eugene Litvak
Hear from Dr. Eugene Litvak what changes result in the most benefits to a hospital
Identify root causes of patient flow problems and successful strategies to meet these challenges
Understand how the Joint Commission’s standards for patient flow can serve as framework to enhance patient throughput and lead to such benefits as improved financial performance, reduced nurse staffing requirements, and increased patient safety
