Abstract

From ancient times, hospitals all over the world, especially the ones from Romania, have tried to implement a method which would have the ability to eliminate the waste from processes. That method will be represented by Lean system and will be able to eliminate the waste starting with waste of time and medicines-the 2 most important priorities in the health industry. Due to different approaches of this method, the waste from hospitals and clinics, started to decrease step by step, achieving objectives like patients' and medical staff's satisfaction. Generally, the main target of the project is to find the right way to eliminate in proportion of at least 70% the waste from health industry. This action will be possible by accustoming the entire medical staff with Lean principles and main tools, so that they could turn into a Lean thinking, in order to contribute each of them at the improvement of health care system.
