The Kaizen Philosophy

Do it better, make it better, improve it even if it Do it better, make it better, improve it even if it isn’t broken, because if we don’t, we can’t

compete with those who do.

Lean does NOT mean downsizing.

Lean refers to looking at what systems are Lean refers to looking at what systems are currently in place and finding a way to make

them more efficient through fundamental changes.

Our QI Philosophy

By applying the kaizen and lean philosophies, in combination with the PDSA model for

improvement, we will continuously enhance patient-centered care.
