From Motorola and Toyota to Your Wound Care Program: Leaning into Six-Sigma to Optimize Clinical and Economic Outcomes
Staffing shortages and increasing costs of care delivery challenge the provision of fiscally responsible and clinically effective wound care across health care settings. Partnering with your wound care provider to bring Lean Six Sigma1 principles and efficiencies into your wound care program can be the key to improving clinical and economic outcomes for your patients and facility.
The Convatec Complete program offers a Lean Six Sigma-based approach for product standardization, product acquisition, product formulary development, staff education and clinical management in your wound care program. Using a case study model, one organization’s experience in implementing the Convatec Complete program will illustrate the clinical and financial outcomes achieved using this unique approach to tackling the challenges of providing wound care in today’s challenging health care environment.
