Susan Grimwood is an advanced practice registered nurse with extensive experience in dermatology, plastic surgery, neurology and medical surgical/cardiac care. She currently serves as the executive director of logistics, capacity and patient throughput at Sarasota Memorial Health Care System in Florida.

Grimwood's passion for nursing stems from her desire to connect with people and help them recover during their most vulnerable times. Her leadership and innovative approach to building logistics operations and managing patient flow have yielded substantial improvements in patient throughput while maintaining the highest quality of care. Grimwood's unique process of real-time productivity management has saved the organization millions of dollars and created a culture of accountability while keeping nurse turnover below the industry average.

Grimwood is also a key innovator in embracing predictive technology in healthcare. She coined the term "VOODOO" to refer to LeanTaaS’ Census Forecast technology, which she uses as a strategic advisor for making decisions about allocating float staff, dispatching ADT nurses and opening/closing surge capacity. Thanks to her leadership, everyone at Sarasota Memorial Healthcare now has VOODOO on their mobile device.
