Leveraging people, process & technology: Strategies for efficiency and throughput


Tuesday, November 18th, 2025 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT

Care delays often hide in plain sight — idle rooms waiting on environmental services, ORs starting late despite staffed teams, discharges backing up at 3 p.m.  In this live discussion, healthcare leaders will map where bottlenecks form and how to fix them with people, process and technology.

Speakers will share practical playbooks to improve coordination across clinical, operational and support teams. Attendees will see how to move beyond point fixes and instead build shared visibility, role clarity and signal-driven workflows that speed room turnover, align OR teams and smooth discharges. Expect concrete guidance, tips and metrics leaders use to prove progress.

Learnings include:
 
  • Where chokepoints most often occur across perioperative, bed management and discharge
  • How to speed room turnover using real-time bed status, EVS dispatch and closed-loop notifications
  • How virtual nursing can clear discharge backlogs, protect bedside capacity and improve staff experience
