21. “The experience with Productive General Practice
has been a good one. It has been good to
establish where we were in the first place and
where we want to go and the change has been
fully supported.
It has helped to build a picture of where we want to
be in five years time. We want to make it the
‘super surgery’ that it could be through continuing
to strive for better patient feedback, and
maintaining the drive that we’ve established so far,
because we have achieved some really brilliant
work.
We’re looking forward to the further change that’s
about to come.”

Hinweis der Redaktion
: After discussion and application of the 5S exercise the consultation room was transformed. Everything has a place and is clearly labelled. All the boxes have labels of contents and quantities for replenishing purposes. This is the before and after story of one consultation module team who used the 5s tool to remove unnecessary items and paperwork. By creating standardised equipment boxes and a more spacious and pleasant environment it became much easier find items required for the consultations which led to a more efficient consultation process.
