Problem:
I am writing a strategic plan for a clinical laboratory I am having a problem trying to decide if the change I am proposing is long term and if it is how do I explain it and if its not do you have any suggestion for aplan for well established clinical laboratory key objectives Patients, growth, people(employees).
My plan is to improve turnaround time in the coagulation department by moving coag closer to processing were the specimens could be spun and test performed in half the time upon entry into the building. Our turnaround time now is 8:00 and it would probably move up to 6:30am.
No matter how many definitions I read I also am having a problem with the difference in Strategies, Grand Strategies, generic strategies, Long term objectives, goals? Are the following Long term Objectives?
- Put patients first
- deliver six sigma quality
- innovate and rapidly deploy tests and technologies
- accelerate profitable growth
- continuously improve ourselves
- commit to future
