TYPE OF STRATEGY
People Task Technology Built EnvironmentUnobstructed circulation pathways support reduced work flow challenges that can lead to potential hazards such as surgical errors, slips, trips, and falls by increasing access to supplies, equipment, and communication devices during the procedure.
