Roadmap for Success – by Leslie Richard

As we are in the 21st century, so we must understand the complete gamut of Hospital and Healthcare business, starting from due diligence, design, construction, and cost-effective hospital can be created and built.

What are smart hospitals and why most aren’t there yet and specially in India?

“Smart hospitals are those that optimize, redesign or build new clinical processes, management systems and potentially even infrastructure, enabled by underlying digitized networking infrastructure of interconnected assets, to provide a valuable service or insight which was not possible or available earlier, to achieve better patient care, experience, and operational efficiency.”

What are the Essential Components for Smart Hospitals?

The critical component for smart hospitals is the ability to provide a valuable service of insight, which was simply not possible or available earlier. This is what makes a hospital a step further from being just digital, making it truly smart. Simply digitizing, or making the hospital paperless is not enough. We ...
... see current implementations of digital solutions in hospitals as steps in their journey to become smart. From exploratory implementations to an intermediate stage, to finally becoming smart where hospitals have a complete alignment of clinical processes and management systems.

Clinical excellence revolves around solutions for nurses and doctors to improve their work efficiency, and also solutions designed for various departments, especially the emergency, surgery, and radiology areas. Clinical excellence also encompasses improving patient outcomes by ensuring patient engagement and monitoring. A smart hospital needs to look beyond its walls with a population health view to get patients discharged quicker while ensuring they recover well, without being required to be readmitted. Remote monitoring tools can help smart hospitals achieve this goal.

Why patient satisfaction matters? Improving patient satisfaction has become one of the primary goals for a lot of healthcare providers. The reason is simple: patient satisfaction level is directly linked to key success metrics for hospitals and individual healthcare providers

How do we achieve ‘Patient Satisfaction’?

There are four critical components to achieve ‘Patient Satisfaction’

A – Acknowledge. There is no greater insult than to be ignored. …
S – Support. Set a “no ignore” rule in your department. …
A – Accept. Simply accept what the patient has to say when you offer support. …
P – Prepare to Act. …
ASAP – Acknowledge that the patient is important with your eye contact and active engagement.
It is a requirement for therapeutic treatment and is equivalent to self-therapy. Satisfied patients help themselves get healed faster because they are more willing to comply with treatment and adhere to instructions of health care providers, and thus have a shorter recovery time.
