Transforming Healthcare with Standardization of Operations

The healthcare industry is a tough one. According to World Health Organization, while in the hospital 1 in every 10 patients is harmed.  But there is hope – they also have found that investments in reducing patient safety incidents can lead to both better patient outcomes and significant financial savings. In fact, in the US alone, focused safety improvements led to an estimated $28 billion in savings between 2010 and 2015. Therefore hospitals are constantly working to improve medical care and patient safety. And one of the best ways to do this is through the standardization of processes and operations.
