Esse Health's Commitment to ExcellenceEsse's Health is living up to their tagline of "We want you well," as they partner with the Workforce Solutions Group to implement Lean thinking and work processes to continuously improve the speed and quality of services delivered to patients.
Esse Health, the largest independent physician practice in the St. Louis region, initiated its partnership with STLCC with a presentation by George Friesen on Waste Detection and Employee Empowerment.
This presentation was followed by a five-day series of training and planning sessions in Process Improvement Leader Training which produced Esse Health's first group of certified Performance Improvement Leaders (pictured here).
