In a healthcare setting, Six Sigma was implemented to tackle surgical site infections (SSIs). Describe the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) process followed by the team, and quantify the results achieved.
The team employed DMAIC to reduce SSIs: defining the issue, measuring the baseline SSI rate, analyzing SSI causes, implementing improvements (enhanced hand hygiene, improved surgical technique), and controlling the process to maintain improvements. The SSI rate was cut by 50%.
TQM was implemented in a hospital to enhance overall quality. The team engaged all employees in the improvement process, utilizing quality circles and suggestion boxes to gather improvement ideas. Employee morale and patient satisfaction both improved.
