1002.1 - Checklist for Inspecting & Improving Hospitals
Results Statement: To assure we thoroughly inspect and understand all divisions of
hospitals we are purchasing. We do this so that we can creative
effective strategic plans without abandoning previously successful
actions.
Primary Responsible Position: Corporate Shareholders of embark (by delegation to clinic director)
Participating Positions: Clinic Directors and Future Corporate Positions in Div. 5.
Overview: Each division below has a list of areas within that division followed by
their optimal conditions.
How: INSPECT: Clinic Director inspects all areas below in order to understand
how close each area is from the optimal condition. It will include
reviewing records, interviews of staff/vendors, in-person physical
inspections, etc. Inspections of all seven divisions can take up to 6-8
weeks. The inspection process and fully understanding the problems is
MORE IMPORTANT than solving problems. We have to diagnose before
we treat.
“If you give me one hour to save the world, I will spend 55 minutes
defining the problem and 5 minutes solving it.” Albert Einstein
IDEAL SCENE vs. CURRENT SCENE: After fully analyzing all seven
divisions we will compare the ideal scene for each division to each
current scene.
MAJOR DEPARTURES: After determining the gap between current scene
and ideal scene we will then determine the major departure from the
current scene.
PROGRAMS FOR IMPLEMENTATION: After doing the above steps in that
order we can then develop programs with due dates and responsible
party for each party starting with program that will create the most
positive change.
DATES AND TRIAGING: The clinic director will have to meet with the
staff, ED, and shareholders before determining due dates for each
program.
