Case Questions
1. Identify the operations management problems that Dr. Barr is having at
the clinic.
2. The schedule Dr. Barr set up worked well at the clinic where she was a
resident. What are some of the reasons why it might not be working here?
3. Identify some of the reasons why the clinic is having inventory problems.
4. What should Dr. Barr have done differently to avoid some of the
problems she is currently experiencing?
3. She does have the clinic for curing the animals, particularly
cats and dogs, but it is completely unplanned. She didn't
think she'd need any more supplements or supplies for the
veterinary clinic. As a result that she has no records for her
inventory, difficulties have occurred that are difficult to solve,
such as the lack of a proper inventory management system.
The process of keeping track of the inventory, purchases,
orders, payments, and other parts of your health system's
business operations is called health care inventory
management.
- In order to meet legal standards, healthcare providers must
have an inventory management system in place to keep
track of medical supplies, order and administer prescriptions,
and sell health products to patients. By keeping an up-to-
date and accurate record of all of your things and supplies,
inventory management systems, which are employed in
large businesses, help to protect your company from both
monetary and product losses
4. Dr. Barr should have hire or consult a quality manager, so
she will be taught about organizing things and operating a
certain business properly while she enjoyed doing.
