12Process Mapping
- A process map or flowchart is a picture of the
sequence of steps in a process - Useful for
- Planning a project
- Describing a process
- Documenting a standard way for doing a job
- Building consensus about the process (correct
misunderstandings about the process)
13Process Mapping
- Ovals are beginnings and endings
- Boxes are steps or activities
- Diamonds are questions
- Arrows show sequence and chronology
14- The first step is to draw a flow diagram. Then
everyone understands what his job is. If people
do not see the process, they cannot improve it. - W.E. Deming, 1993
15Process Mapping
- Can be high-level to get an overview of the
process
Bedside teaching?
Go to see patient
Go to next patient
Team meets in work room
Rounds complete
No
Yes
Make teaching point
16Process Mapping
- Can also be very detailed and drilled down to
show the details and roles
Team has test results to review
Team meets in work room
Team leaves work room
Team prioritizes order to see patients
Team Discusses routine patients
17Process Mapping
- Detailed process maps are especially helpful to
standardize and improve processes - For use as an improvement tool, it is important
to map the current process, not the desired
process
18Process Mapping
- The teaching process
- Sample maps in handout
- Disclaimer before looking at maps
- The evidence about how to teach/where to teach is
mixed - There isnt a wrong or right way they are just
different

that you want to understand and improve the
method can be generalized
