Thursday, March 17th, 2022 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT

Nearly every health system in the country faced unprecedented nursing shortages in 2021 and the challenges aren't over. Infusion centers have been particularly hard hit, working desperately to maximize nursing capacity as they navigate unexpected pandemic hurdles.

In this webinar, Ashley Joseph, VP of client services for infusion centers at LeanTaaS, will share the mathematically and operationally “best” way to manage nursing capacity. Ms. Joseph is a 20-year service operations expert who has helped optimize the operations at nearly 500 infusion centers.

Key learning points:
 
  • Little-known and actionable methods that 99 percent of infusion centers haven’t attempted to maximize nursing capacity
  • The mathematically and operationally best way to manage nursing capacity in your infusion center
  • How these methods can support happier nurses and patients, thereby improving staff retention efforts

 

“We implemented this method in early January and our nurses actually love it! Our drug wait times have dropped 15 minutes and nurses are getting out early," said Lisa Rioux, RN, BSN, nurse manager at Novant Health
