Bill has developed a proven method of placing Surgeons and Anesthesiologists in a pivotal position in determining how your Operating Rooms function. Focusing on their needs firsts allows the efficient use of your Surgical department to fall into place. Your clinical leaders are empowered to focus on patient care and staff satisfaction rather than constantly fighting the same old fires day after day. It’s complex and requires a sobering examination of accountability, the willingness to align responsibility accordingly, tenacity, strategy, physician-trusted data, and a commitment from hospital leadership to trust the transformative process. The work is guaranteed to establish a highly functional Surgical environment within six months with an ROI of one year, which is also guaranteed.
