Great Primer for Healthcare
We, in the healthcare profession, have been using science and practices from other industries for decades, and yet we haven't been able to increase our efficiencies like the quantum events that occurred in package delivery, auto manufacturing, movie delivery, etc... This book starts to get at the focus needed for us to really transform how we deliver care. Einstein had it right when he said, "... We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them..." Keep at it Dr. Larson... Force us to think differently!

Not Worth it.
Not that great of a book for someone already working within that role. It's pretty basic stuff. Wouldn't waste my money on it.

Great book for students, young professionals and industry leaders.
Having worked in healthcare process improvement since 2005, I am reminded every day that I always have more to learn about the field. This book is filled with best practices shared by healthcare professionals from all over the country with backgrounds varying from engineering, marketing, clinical & administrative. For students and young professionals, this guide provides excellent insight into the tenants of process improvement & industrial engineering in the world of healthcare.

Great book for an industrial engineer or process improvement professional considering a career in healthcare
This book is filled with insights into the application of industrial engineering principles in healthcare. While the IE principles apply to all industries, this book does a great job making that leap from manufacturing applications to healthcare applications. I've been working in healthcare for over 13 years, and I still learned things from the book, including application of IE concepts that I hadn't thought about. A must read if you're considering a career in healthcare process improvement.
