The Australasian Lean Healthcare Network is delighted to announce that it is convening the 6th Australasian Redesigning Healthcare Summit in Melbourne, Victoria. The Summit will be convened in collaboration with the Department of Health, Victoria who is supporting the Summit in 2010.

In 2010, the summit organisers have chosen the theme "delivering a system that works" in acknowledgement of the cumulative and diverse redesign experience in Australasia that has now been tested over time to deliver improvement in flow, quality, cost, and patient and staff experience.

John Shook, the first Western employee at Toyota, author of notable Lean Thinking texts, and unique teacher returns in 2010.

Limited places will be available to visit exemplar improvement sites where closer, more direct learning experiences are possible.
