According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2007), the average length of stay in 2005 for all inpatients in a hospital was 4.8 days. After careful study of admissions over the past 6 months, the average length of stay for your hospital was 8.7 days. The chief executive officer (CEO) is concerned that the average length of stay is much higher than the national average and has asked you to look into the issue further.
In the Individual Project assignment last week, you identified the following:
Potential causes for the higher-than-average length of stay for the hospital
Processes that could be measured through the implementation of the Six Sigma program
Tools to be used to measure the processes
Potential benefits to the hospital as a result of the Six Sigma program
The CEO has asked you to present an implementation strategy for the Six Sigma initiative to the executive team.
In a PowerPoint presentation of 25-30 slides, propose a strategy for implementing a Six Sigma initiative to address the above-average length of stay issue.
Your implementation strategy must follow the five-phase approach:
Phase I: Mobilizing
Phase II: Planning
Phase III: Piloting
Phase IV: Implementing the Six Sigma system
Phase V: Internalizing the Six Sigma culture
Presentation Requirements
The slides should be structured in a formal presentation format that uses short bullet points in the slides and that utilizes the Notes section of the slides to elaborate on the slides' content.
