HI Hazel Our lab has, in fact, been "LEANED". We were somewhat limited by budget of course, but we did a fair amount of streamlining. We are at 5 sites in the city, so each site presented it's own challenges. We are currently in the process of maintaining our processes.
If you would like to e mail me off - line, we can 'chat' some more. Thanks Jacquie [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jacqueline Farnsworth Anatomic Pathology, Tech III Calgary Laboratory Services Calgary, Alberta, Canada -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Della Speranza, Vinnie Sent: October 14, 2008 9:10 AM To: 'Horn, Hazel V'; histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: [Histonet] RE: Are there no LEAN labs out there? Hazel, I am scheduled to attend a Surgical Pathology Lean training workshop at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. You can see the information at this link http://www.henryford.com/body.cfm?id=50135 I don't know anyone who works in the lab there but you might find it useful to contact the histo lab by phone to have your questions addressed. Hope this helps.

I have not heard from any labs that have gone to the LEAN process. Are there none out there? I have heard from labs who are interested in it but not one response from a lab who is LEAN. Thanks.
