Agenda

• CPI at Children’s • Waste & Value • Just in Time • Built in Quality • Results Continuous Performance Improvement

Our Vision

We will be the best children’s hospital.

Continuous Performance Improvement

Our Reality in the Late 1990s…

• Safety concerns – Serious safety events • Service deficiencies – Access – Communication • Healthcare finance reform • Declining staff engagement To achieve our vision we needed a new management philosophy Continuous Performance Improvement

A Benchmark: Toyota

• High quality and reliability • Safety record that exceeds others in the industry • Cost effective with a short response time to customers • High levels of employee engagement and morale • Organization-wide philosophy and management system Continuous Performance Improvement

Our CPI Philosophy: Benchmarking Lean

Focus on the patient and family:

involve them in our improvement work; listen!

Engage staff at all levels:

those that do the work, can improve the work; use the scientific method •

Leaders provide guidance and commitment:

this is our management system and we support staff in their improvement work •

Long term view:

this is a generational effort without an end point, that utilizes P-D-C-A Continuous Performance Improvement

Continuous Performance Improvement

What Does That Mean? No Waiting Engage Everyone in a Patient-Focused Philosophy No Harm “Just In Time” “Built-In Quality” Right service in the right amount at the right time in the right place Balance the Work Standard Work Make problems visible Never let a defect pass along to the next step Eliminate batches Error Proof Rapid Changeover Continuous Flow: Pull vs. Push Stop when there is a quality problem 5S and Visual Control Value Stream Improvement Through Waste Reduction

Continuous Performance Improvement

Waste & Value

Value Stream Improvement Through Waste Reduction

How do we do this?

1) Understand value for the customer: • Identify who is your customer • Identify what product or service the customer wants 2) Focus on Flow • Identify the process of how the value is created (The Value Stream) • Eliminate steps that do not create value (The Waste) Continuous Performance Improvement

Continuous Performance Improvement

The Basic Strategy

• Most processes are

95 – 99%

non-value-added. • Everything we do in a work process either adds

value

or is

waste

• We want to design systems that provide value with as little waste as possible Eliminate

Waste

Reduce Continuous Performance Improvement

Non-Value Added Activity (8 Wastes)

“Activity that consumes resources but

adds no value

to the product/service”

5S What are the 5S’s?

1. Sort

– separate unneeded from needed

2. Straighten

– a place for everything and everything in its place

3. Scrub

– visual and physical inspection

4. Standardize

– everyone doing the same thing

5. Sustain

– hold the gains through audits and accountability

Was 5S used in our airplane factory?

Workplace Organization Helps Eliminate Waste

How does the setup of the fire truck and code cart impact the ability to do the jobs they were designed for?

Continuous Performance Improvement

Visual Workplace

(cont’d.)

What needs to be re-stocked?

Re-stocking Rule

Do not re-stock until level falls below

red

line.

Re-stock only up to

green

line.

Continuous Performance Improvement

Visual Workplace

Visual workplaces use visual devices to: • Tell us at a glance how we are doing • Allow us to see abnormal conditions as they occur • Understand the status of an area in 5 minutes or less by simple observation, without use of computers or speaking to anyone © 2005v.2 Joan Wellman and Associates, Inc.

5S is More Than Tidying Up

5S is a visually oriented system for organizing the workplace to… • Wasted time • Training time • Errors • Maintenance • Inventory • Hazards • Barriers to success • Teamwork • Quality • Safety • Cleanliness • Discipline • Consistency • Culture © 2005v.2 Joan Wellman and Associates, Inc.

Continuous Performance Improvement

“Just in Time” -No Waiting

Just in Time

– No Waiting

Right service, right amount, right place, right time Batch Processing Continuous Flow Processing

Continuous Flow = Steady Velocity

Continuous Performance Improvement

Batch Processing vs Continuous Flow Processing

Batch Processing

Large batches

Continuous Flow Processing

Batch of 1 (one-piece flow) Process silos (operate independently) Layout of space designed to optimize silo (promotes batching) Connected processes (dependent on each other) Layout of facility/space based on sequence of work Schedule each process and push to the next Equipment & supplies are stored in “warehouses” Problems remain hidden in buffers of inventory Entire process linked with no inventory or waiting between steps Equipment & supplies (including meds) are stored at the point of use Problems become visible (stop the line) Continuous Performance Improvement

Continuous Flow Enables “Just in Time” Services

If… The customer and value is identified Service is produced one-at-a time to meet demand Physical layout eliminates transportation and movement Product or service is provided on customer request Then it’s Just the…

Right Service Right Amount Right Place Right Time

= No Waiting

Continuous Performance Improvement

Creating Flow with Signals: Kanban

• • •

Definition:

A signal for communication that allows the customer to say, “

I am ready for more

” or “

I need more

” Signal can be a card, empty space, cart, etc.

Used to create flow between disconnected processes often due to physical layout • • •

Purpose:

Paces the work to prevent batching Authorizes work to begin Authorizes supplies or equipment to be moved

Was kanban used in our airplane factory?

“Built in Quality” - No Harm

The Importance of Built in Quality

Errors become “defects” when work moves beyond where the error occurred.

What are the effects of later detection?

Start Continuous Performance Improvement

1. DETECT the Abnormality

Knowledge in the Head Knowledge in the World

Need to rely on memory or look up acceptable level Quick glance enabled by simple visual indicators Continuous Performance Improvement

1. DETECT the Abnormality

2. STOP

Give Stop-the-line authority to everyone and prevent defects from being passed on

= STOP

STAR:

3. FIX or Correct the Immediate Condition

Respond immediately to the abnormality

Our Approach: Wins and Challenges

• Wins: • • Early successes allowed us to prove the methods worked Early leadership buy-in and enthusiasm provided a basis for engagement throughout the organization • Executive leadership and Board support afforded a strong foundation • Challenges: • • Value stream approach earlier on would have allowed us to see the system-wide impacts Early focus on the tools and event-based – RPIWs, 5S, etc.; management systems approach did not start soon enough to support sustainment of work (audits, leader standard work, etc.) Continuous Performance Improvement

Lessons Learned

• Requires a long term view • Requires substantial leadership and financial investment • This is

hard work!

• Learn to fish – external consultants can get you started, but you have to develop leaders within your organization Continuous Performance Improvement
