Project Summaries

As a patient in theatre I am expected to have my surgery done on the day as planned and not get cancelled, as this will add to my stress and anxiety. As a member of the Theatre team, we want to treat all patients on the list through a stress free day in theatre, maintaining efficiency and finishing on time. The Team are seeking to reduce the average changeover time between patients from 54 minutes to 30-40 minutes which would allow, in time, more patients to be treated on each list.
