What is a Rapid Improvement Event?
Lean is an ongoing and sometimes difficult journey towards the perfect Healthcare system but there are many aspects of how your organisation currently works that with small changes, can generate substantial quick wins in a very short space of time with minimal resources and effort.
A Rapid Improvement Event (RIE) is a key component in the Lean toolbox focusing on making small but significant changes to your working environment and practices that result in real time and cost savings along with delivering an improved patient experience.
This is why we developed the Lean Healthcare Academy Rapid Improvement Event for the NHS, a highly successful face-to-face seminar designed to show you how to make small changes quickly to streamline your organisation and make real cost and time savings.
Now following on from that successful template we have created the Rapid Improvement Event - In a Bag!. It is exactly as it sounds, we give you everything you need to run your own Rapid Improvement Event... in a bag and ship it to you!
No contracts, no embedded trainers, no waiting. You get everything from a comprehensive Rapid Improvement Event guide right through to the pens and paper, all sent to you in one compact and attractive flight bag.*
Inside you'll find:
|
|
- RAPID IMPROVEMENT EVENT DOCUMENTATION
A comprehensive step by step guide collaboratively written by our highly qualified and experienced Lean Facilitators who have drawn upon knowledge from over 180 successful Lean projects, on how to run a Rapid Improvement Event and capture the benefits.
|
- VIDEO CAMERA
A top of the range video camera to capture and review your meetings, planning sessions, process flow analysis and every other part of running a Rapid Improvement Event
|
- MAGIC WHITEBOARD PAPER
Just like a traditional whiteboard it’s completely erasable; any ink will completely rub off even if left for days, so you can reuse each sheet more than 20 times. The sheets stick to any wall with no adhesive and can be removed, rolled and put back up again as many time as you want. The Magic Whiteboard paper is ideal for mapping out the current and future states of your Trust.
|
- ENCRYPTED USB STICK
A 2GB encrypted password protected USB stick featuring 256Bit AES encryption and SafeErase technology. Also includes lanyard and USB extension cord. Store all of your Rapid Improvement Event documents securely and transport safe in the knowledge that only you can access the information.
|
- HEADPHONES
A set of comfortable Headphones with built in microphone to aid you in joining webinars, e-Learning or listening to the video recordings in private. Additional Headsets can be ordered.
|
- CHOCOLATES
A box chocolates to be used as a prize or incentive (or just to keep you going while you work towards improving your organisation)
|
- T-SHIRT GAME
How fold a T-Shirt in 2 seconds! It may not sound like much but "How to fold a t-shirt in 2 seconds" is an amazing method for introducing you to Standard Operating Procedures, one of the foundation blocks of running a Rapid Improvement Event.
|
- LEGO GAME
How to build a Lego car. Again, you may think "why do I need to build a Lego car?", this game is used to illustrate the use of Standard Operating Procedures, much like the T-shirt game.
|
- CONSUMABLES
Pens, highlighters,process flow analysis post-it notes, paper, and a pedometer for mapping out how much distance/time is spent walking around your Trust. You'll be amazed at how much "motion and transportation" waste you can remove after a Rapid Improvement Event.
