History
Aims & Objective of the Hospital Administration
The product of this machine is the ‘service’ or the ‘medical Care’ provided by a hospital. This product is intangible and dependent on so many people acting individually and collectively and does not lend it self to easily definable standards or to simple units of measurement.
Role of Hospital Administration towards patient
The primary reason for Hospital’s existence is for curative care.The patients are the sole reason for hospital’s establishment. A hospital therefore has to design its entire operational system centering around the patient. The hospital administration has to ensure that this objective of a hospital is achieved in its entirety.
Profile of a hospital patient
A patient is a person who is member of a society in need of medical care. He is not an object or disease entity. When he comes to the hospital he brings along with him all his emotions, all his need of individuality and his need for independence. A hospitalized patient is under great stress.
Though it is expected the nurses will give equal care and will not allow personal liking or disliking, but this does not always happen. Some patients become unpopular because they grumble, or complain or demand attention.
The Hospital administrator has a great responsibility to understand these behavioral aspects of patient care and take appropriate measures to negate these dysfunctional aspects.
The Hospital administrator also has to understand the specific needs of a special group of patients so that those needs can be met. These groups of patients are patients in wheel chair, elderly, pediatric patients, new born babies and patients in I.C.U.
Creation of a friendly environment
The Hospital administrator must Endeavour to make patient comfortable and welcome. The hospital usually have imposing buildings, strict rules, formidable and intimidating looking gadgets, glum faced hospital worker. The H.A must recognize these and all necessary measures to make the hospital as friendly to the patients as possible.
Motto:
Our Priority patient First ;
We Pledge to Serve.
Right patient on Right bed with Right services around him.
