What is Value? Hairdresser activity
What is value? The activity is done right first time The activity transforms the patient and moves them towards the next defined outcome The activity is something that the patient cares about
Define Value in Your Service Who are your patients? What is the ‘value’ your patient wants? How is the value added? When you describe value use the customers' words
Stage 2: Waste
Opportunities to Remove Waste: Waiting – delays for things to happen Mistakes – things going wrong Uncoordinated activity – things out of sequence Stock –too much or too little Transportation –moving info / things Motion – unnecessary human movement Inappropriate processing – unnecessary work
Activity: Watch the video, identify and discuss the different sorts of waste shown
Value Stream Mapping the patient journey Define start and end points • Supporting Organisational Structure: • Sponsor • Team Lead and Clinical Lead, Team Members
Who to Involve • Small team 8-12 people, mixed disciplines • Represent people at all the steps you will look at • ‘Fresh eyes’ • Patients/ carers • Nominate a team and clinical lead
What to Measure Agree beforehand improvements in - Journey time for patients - Time spent on non value adding work - Throughput (productivity) - Morale / staff satisfaction
Observe and Gather Data • Walk the patient journey - see the actual work place • Follow and make notes about each component • What happens to the patient • What staff are doing • What the information / communication flow is • Take photos of wastes
Take the cameras on the walkabout, you’ll never convey this verbally!
What do patients actually experience and say about the process?
Ask staff at each step for their views on ‘show stoppers’, frustrations and positives
Build up the Value Stream Map Walk the Area Collect real time data Have plenty of space Don’t rely on hearsay Take photos Don’t skip process steps Don’t assume Define the Boundaries of the VSA
Understanding your Current State Map: Add value Remove waste
Quantifying Value Added Activity and Time: Value Adding Non Value Adding
Highlight opportunities to reduce waste on the map • Waiting • Mistakes • Uncoordinated activity • Stock • Transportation • Motion • Inappropriate processing
Ideal State What process would the team design to align the value adding steps in the right sequence, complete the process as fast as possible, right first time, and reduce or eliminate waste? What would the patient, staff and information steps look like?
