Mistake Proofing
• Examines the root causes for mistakes and aims to prevent them
before they create defects (harm to our patients)
• Takes place over 5 months: one month of data collection, a trip
to Virginia Mason to learn how to mistake proof processes, and
4 months to implement solutions through Plan, Do, Check, Act
Stop the Line
• Anyone can recognize that there is a potential for harm or
injury and can signal their concern
• STOP and RESPOND

• Tell at a glance what and how you are doing
• Create daily awareness of important areas, e.g. safety
concerns,
• Timely information,
• Ensure nothing important is missed,
• Make it easier to prioritize work,
• Prevent people from reacting to every little thing,
• Enable synchronization of work,
• The abnormal becomes visual → Allow rapid resolution of
conflicts and issues
• Enables the manager to act proactively → Less firefighting
• ‘The pulse of the unit’
What you cannot see,
you cannot manage!

1. What primary or support process are you part of?
• What is the purpose of this process?
2. How does your process create value for
patients/clients/residents?
3. Who is your customer and supplier and what is the feedback
process?
4. What is the rock in your shoe? What about your daily work
keeps you up at night?
5. What are the safety risks for patients/clients/residents and
staff?
6. How do you know when you are doing well?
• If you came back from holiday, what would you want to
see on the wall to know the health of the process?
7. How do you know when things are not running the way they
should be?

“In a rapidly changing
environment, it is vital that
team members frequently
resynchronize their efforts,
coordinate, communicate,
and flexibly adapt to current
situation.“

“A visibility wall without gemba walks is just wall

“A gemba walk without a visibility wall is just a
social visit”

• What IS your job?
• What are you trying to accomplish today?
• How do you know if you are doing this work
correctly?
• What do you do if you have a problem?
• What improvements have you made lately?
• Respect to the people who do the value
creating work
• Look for signs of disrespect toward workers,
especially overburden
• Look for signs of disrespect toward customers,
poor quality or poor delivery
• Steadily take away each and every bit of non
value creating “work”

Don’t have any ideas?
Have bad ideas?
Just ask me to buy stuff instead of fixing processes?
Have selfish ideas?
Come up with sub-optimizing ideas?
Come up with ideas that violate rules or regulations?
Mark Graban Lean blog March 21, 2013
• A single methodology (to learn)
• Visible leadership (on the gemba)
• Ongoing communication (more, more , more)
• Doing, not just planning (it may not be right the first
time)
• Resource improvement efforts (can get things done
when it comes to you)
• Expect surprises (enthusiasm and resistance)
• Measure change management and hold people
accountable (uncomfortable at times)
