The sustenance of Quality in health care delivery is an essential and important factor which is only possible by implementing effective systems in place. Standardization and uniformity is the accepted norm of patient safety so well laid international and national policies and protocols guide the practices and processes in KIMS. Occurrence variance reporting is encouraged by the management to identify the gaps in processes which is rectified by effective corrective and preventive actions. This keeps the system robust and fool proof .Medical boards are convened to give a streamlined treatment regime to patients with comorbidities.
Key performance Indicator is an effective tool to measure the patient outcome. 72 mandatory indicators help the departments to ascertain that the outcome is measured and benchmarked to international standards. Any spike/trends in KPI are noted by the concerned department and measures are taken to benchmark it to accepted standards. Regular audits are performed on clinical outcomes and these results are published to all staff.
Inculcating quality culture is the first step towards building a quality conscious work force so all employees who join KIMS has to go through a rigorous screening and onboarding program. Clinicians and paramedical staff has to undergo a stringent credentialing and privileging process which ensures that patients are in safe hands. Mandatory on the job training is a part and parcel of enhancing the skills and competencies of staff.
Committees form the backbone of Quality system.13 clinical and10 non-clinical committees contribute extensively to enhance the quality of care.
