In this DVD, you will see ThedaCare's leading lean practices at their system-level boardroom (the "visual room") and at multiple locations throughout Appleton Medical Center. You will hear directly from the leading figures in the development of the ThedaCare Improvement System: Dr. John Toussaint, CEO of the ThedaCare Center for Healthcare Value, and Dr. Dean Gruner, CEO of ThedaCare. You will also see and hear other leaders, from the hospital COO to a unit-level nursing manager, describe how strategy deployment creates alignment throughout the organization.
The DVD illustrates how ThedaCare's "true north" objectives are translated to multiple departments. You will also see how leaders use standardized visual boards to track key metrics, rapid improvement events, and staff suggestions - all aimed at providing the best patient care.

Abstract
Healthcare is facing a crisis brought on by a combination of rising costs, lack of transparency and accountability, and preventable medical errors. Applying lean thinking to improve care is one way that healthcare organizations can engage employees in solving problems in order to deliver better and more efficient care. This book is a guide for leaders of healthcare organizations who want to implement lean thinking. Readers will learn how to identify and select a problem, define a project scope, and create a shared understanding of what's occurring in the value stream. Readers will also learn to develop a shared vision of an improved future, and how to work together to make that vision a reality. Rather than rely on huge training budgets or teams of consultants, the method described in this book focuses on solving real organizational problems, and helps healthcare organizations and those who labor within them to daily provide safe, effective, efficient, and timely patient care.
