Perceptions of Lean in Health Care |
1. A survey considering perceptions of Lean in health care
| 25% |
The surveys initial phase was open to January 1 2011 and the second phase is currently open. The survey is not very long at 14 questions and will take approximately 10 – 15 minutes; most questions are multiple choice and a few require a short answer.
The purpose of the survey, as part of a Doctoral research project being conducted by Steven Bradt, is to investigate perceptions regarding the application of Lean in health care. The goal is to better understand the context which drive perceptions concerning Lean's application.
Perceptions about the use of "tools" in health care can influence how people respond and react to the application of Lean.
This research supports Dr David Bamford and his research focus in health care and knowledge transfer at Manchester Business School (MBS) and will potentially add value to research from international academic institutions and organizations.
The results and subsequent paper(s) will be made available to all individuals and their organizations as part of participating in the survey.
Special Thanks to: Dr. David Bamford (MBS), David Butler (Atos Consulting), Dr. Maria Gilgeous, Mark Graban (Author: Lean Hospitals), Sue Herrick (Telford & Wrekin Council), Brian Hudson (St. Elizabeth Regional Health), Karl Kraebber (St. John's Hospital), Dr. Nathan Proudlove (MBS), Dr. Zoe Radnor (Warick Business School), and Dr. Brian Squire (MBS)
