Healthcare Process Improvement 4 – 7 November 2012 • Kempinski Hotel, Mall of the Emirates, Dubai, UAE Course Overview As someone with responsibility for reducing wait times, improving the patient journey, or improving a critical support service, without a doubt you will recognise the immediate benefits that a strategic and managed response to patient flow and process improvement can reap. Healthcare facilities are vertical structures, yet your patients take a horizontal journey. Although every hospital is good at clinical care and clinical decision-making, it often seems difficult to make progress in improving the patient journey in clinics and in-patient services, and to improve the support services necessary for patient flow. This course will guide you through the principles of process improvement and show you how to apply the lessons of Lean Thinking to enable true process redesign in your healthcare setting. You Will Learn How To: • Visualise your improvement programme to dramatically improve flow • Make processes transparent • Link process improvement and basic concepts in change management to ensure successful implementation and take-up of new methods • Envision your improvement team for sustaining and innovating change in your organisation • Maximise your resources and deliver sustainable improvements in patient-centered care and critical support services in every area of the hospital You will then put into practice tools to clearly highlight your aims and how far along you are towards reaching your goals. Areas such as queuing theory are also explored and their application to healthcare demonstrated. Simple measures of capacity and demand relevant to clinics, in-patient services, diagnostic and support services will be explored and you will learn how to translate the activities of staff into easy to analyse units. Throughout the course, there are allocated timeslots allowing ample opportunity for you to put these principles into practice.

Meet Your Expert Course Leader Professor David I. Ben-Tovim, Director, Redesigning Care and Clinical Epidemiology Units Flinders Medical Centre, Australia. Professor David Ben-Tovim is the leader of the Redesigning Care Programme at the Flinders Medical Centre, a 500-bed teaching general hospital in South Australia. A psychiatrist and clinical epidemiologist by background, he was the inaugural Director of Clinical Governance at the Flinders Medical Centre before leading the Redesigning Care Programme at that hospital. Redesigning Care began in 2003 and is a hospital-wide programme of process improvement aimed at improving patient flow and making care safer and more cost- efficient. Professor Ben-Tovim has been an adviser to many other Australian hospitals and health services that are using process improvement methods to improve patient flow through Lean thinking and other non- healthcare based improvement methods. He has been a World Health Organisation Consultant, and has given master classes in healthcare process redesign throughout Australia and New Zealand, and in Singapore, South Africa, Oman, and in Sweden and the United Kingdom. Professor Ben-Tovim trained in Medicine and Psychiatry at the Middlesex and St. Georges University Hospitals in London and in Epidemiology at the Institute of Psychiatry, also in London. He established the Clinical Epidemiology Unit at the Flinders Medical Centre in 1998, before becoming Director of Clinical Governance for the hospital. He is the author of two books and over one hundred publications in peer reviewed literature, including a number related to the application of process redesign and Lean Thinking to healthcare redesign. His work in Lean Thinking at Flinders has resulted in the facility doing 15 – 20% more work, with fewer safety incidents, on the same budget, using the same infrastructure, staff and technology.
