Health
Lord Darzi's report calling for a 'world class NHS that is
fair, personal, effective and safe' will come as a
welcome relief to most in the NHS, as the patient
becomes the central factor in decision making once
more. Patient care and patient safety are of paramount
importance as they journey through the NHS.
In a difficult environment, with parties split over the
effectiveness of targets in the NHS to drive
productivity, cleanliness and time to care, there is an
ever greater need for Lean to support staff in treating
patients according to Lord Darzi's vision and achieving
significant targets along the way.
