In complex systems like healthcare, where multiple variables and significant variation are a daily reality, simulation can help you drive forward changes that improve efficiency and patient safety.
Patient safety is a major concern. Mistakes are far too common, with 10% of procedures resulting in some form of error. This results in more than 1,000 unnecessary deaths a day and costs $1 trillion a year in the US alone.
This is where simulation can help. It enables healthcare improvers and planners to look forward and design a virtual system that works prior to implementation, while reducing the risk of errors and engaging stakeholders in driving forward healthcare improvement.
Simulation allows you to test these changes in a risk free environment, meaning patients have not been affected. The simulation can then be used to propose changes to stakeholders and get buy-in on the benefits before implementation.
Simulation can be used to ensure quality care and patient safety throughout healthcare organizations
Test processes before implementation that are responsive to patient needs and offer them a quality care experience throughout.
