The balance between outcomes and process
The presence of a process and standardization of operations is important for a lot of functions in your hospital, but the effective management doesn’t allow the process to be the core of management, putting the goal in front of you is also important. Keep all processes that achieve your goals the same and don’t make any changes unless it’s very necessary and you should have a strong evidence that this change will enhance the performance.
