Do hospitals need to adopt Lean Six Sigma, hire Black Belts or retain consultants in order to implement the solutions identified by the Center and participating hospitals?
No. The Joint Commission’s Robust Process Improvement™ toolkit includes a variety of methodologies. While The Joint Commission supports the use of highly effective process improvement methodologies in health care, it does not require the use of a specific methodology. The goal of translating the Center’s work is to make the solutions free of jargon and easy to use by clinicians and quality professionals already employed or on staff at health care organizations.
