The Lean Healthcare Development Programme is a suite of training and development courses designed to provide the knowledge and skills required to support an organisation wide lean transformation. Lean, founded on the principles of the Toyota Production System has been proven to deliver substantial gains in efficiency both in manufacturing and more recently the healthcare sector. It has also been shown that lean implementations are most effective and sustainable when applied to the whole organisation. The Lean Healthcare Development Programme delivers training to all levels of an organisation providing the internal capability to drive real change and establish sustainable improvements in patient care and operational efficiency.

Healthcare providers throughout the world are increasingly turning to lean to help get more out of the same resources, to improve the quality of patient care and safety, eliminate errors, cut delays and reduce the length of patient stays.
A successful lean transformation requires strong leadership from the executive team, highly capable lean champions to implement the change and the buy-in of the wider workforce. The Lean Healthcare Development Programme provides the requisite skills and underpinning knowledge at all levels in the organisation. They are delivered as open courses or in-house as required.
