Description
After this session you’ll be able to:
- Identify the improvement areas to focus on within your department.
- Implement methods focused on increasing OR utilization.
- Explain how to sustain and grow these improvements over time.
Why this is important:
Today’s Perioperative leaders are under pressure to optimize OR utilization, the use of their resources, and meet financial performance goals. Leadership typically looks to block utilization as the main method for improving OR utilization, however it is just one method. As a result, many ORs across the country are drastically underutilized during prime hours, yet off-prime case volume continues to grow, which results in expensive overtime costs and both patient and staff dissatisfaction.
Join Carrigan and Sefton as they explore how most organizations lack the data and analytics to make actionable decisions, which oftentimes leads to inefficient and costly management of their operating rooms and procedural areas. Take home strategies from their own experiences to improve your facility’s utilization to grow your case volume.
