How Lean Flow Increased Throughput, Improved Experience, and Reduced Staff Strain

Delivering vaccines at scale is about more than speed. It’s about creating a safe, calm, and efficient experience for patients—while protecting scarce clinical resources.

In this on-demand webinar, you’ll learn how healthcare teams redesigned vaccination clinics using Lean, flow-based principles to dramatically improve productivity and patient experience—without rushing immunizers or adding complexity.

This real-world case study shows how a patient-first clinic design helped teams move from traditional station-based models to a more flexible, resilient system that adapts to demand, space constraints, and staffing realities.

What This Webinar Covers

  • How traditional vaccination clinic layouts create hidden waste and bottlenecks

  • Why keeping patients in one place improves flow, safety, and experience

  • How to design clinics that scale from small community sites to mass immunization centers

  • Ways to reduce non-value-added work for skilled clinical staff

  • How rapid PDCA cycles enabled continuous improvement during live operations


Key Insights You’ll Gain

  • Patient-first flow can significantly increase doses per immunizer without increasing pace

  • Eliminating unnecessary movement improves safety, clarity, and patient satisfaction

  • Clinic design must adapt to immunizer cycle time—not the other way around

  • Visual management and simple cues enable smoother flow and faster problem detection

  • Continuous improvement can happen in real time—even under crisis conditions


Who This Webinar Is For

This session is especially valuable for:

  • Healthcare leaders overseeing vaccination or high-volume clinics

  • Continuous improvement and Lean professionals in healthcare

  • Quality, operations, and patient experience teams

  • Public health and health system planners preparing for future large-scale clinics
