Virtual Simulation February 18, 2021

Registration is $49. Register now, class size is limited.

In this Simulation, you'll be tasked with building food trays to deliver to patients in the hospital. You'll be given standard work and tray components to build the trays in a specified time. When time expires, your facilitators will guide you through PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Adjust). Based on your PDCA, you'll then build food trays in second, third and fourth rounds, with PDCA between each round. These four cycles of rapid learning will lead to rapid improvements in quality and on-time, defect-free delivery, and incorporate elements of a work system, an improvement system and a management system. The integration of these three systems is key to rapid, meaningful improvement in any organization.
