6. Assign docs bed spots. Put patients in bed spots, pre-procedure
and post-procedure,
by physician. This

comes out for the
next patient for their
room, they know
exactly which 2 bed
spots to choose from.
Likewise, when the
docs come out postprocedure, their
patients are always in

that say "Dr. X Next
Patient" on the overbed table. This way,
no one ever takes in
or talks to the wrong
patient.
