Sailors assigned to Naval Hospital Twentynine Palms complete the final exam of the Lean Six Sigma (LSS) Green Belt course on February 28, 2025. The weeklong training, led by NMFP Regional Master Black Belt James Bloomer, immersed participants in the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology—an evidence-based process improvement framework central to Navy Medicine’s “Get Real, Get Better” initiative. By mastering Lean and Six Sigma principles, students learned to identify inefficiencies, reduce variation, and implement data-driven solutions that enhance patient care, boost operational readiness, and support a culture of continuous improvement across the military health system.
