Satisfaction Surveys - Hospitals
In today's online world, word travels quickly, especially when that word is negative, thus doctors and hospitals are not immune to the ire of negative publicity. Therefore, it is critical for healthcare institutions to have an internal process in which they can evaluate patient satisfaction levels prior to patients being discharged from the hospital. The PatientLogix Anywhere Access system can be configured to administer and securely deliver Patient Satisfaction Surveys to patients through either the hospital in-room TV media Terminal or via a patient’s personal ,media device storing the data in a SQL database to be called upon for reporting purposes.
The patient satisfaction surveys assists hospitals in yielding patient satisfaction levels in measuring all aspects of patient care such as; technical quality, pain management, communication (explanations of care), interpersonal manner (courtesy and respect), discharge planning and health education, environment, time spent with doctor (frequency of visitation from caregivers), accessibility of care (responsiveness of care from caregivers), financial aspects of care, overall impression of healthcare facility etc.
With the PatientLogix system, patients have the option to either submit the survey with their contact information included or anonymously. Moreover, the anonymity feature is important, as it promotes honesty and patients will not feel intimidated nor fear retribution based on their answers. It’s also important for the hospital to create its survey questions centered on the expected behaviors of the patients and hospital staff, for the healthcare facility to yield precise information about what to change and what to keep doing.
The best time to conduct a patient satisfaction survey is when the experience is fresh in the patients' mind prior to them being discharged from the hospital. If a hospital waits to conduct a survey after the patient is discharged via a mailer to the home, or an online survey from the home, the patients' responses may be less accurate as they may have forgotten some of the details or they may choose to forgo to participate in the survey all together.
Acquiring survey results prior to a patient’s discharge in combination with the reporting features of the PatientLogix system provides a healthcare facility with the opportunity to intervene before a patient is discharged in the event there is negative feedback. The survey process enables the hospital to effectively and quickly take corrective measures to rectify the situation; moreover, the survey will provide insight to the hospital on their personnel and whether their work practices and personalities match the customer service vision of the healthcare facility. Ultimately, attention will be given to operations and patient services will be improved upon.
The Hôpitel PatientLogix system can manage and securely deliver Patient Satisfaction Surveys on-demand or prescriptively while assisting the hospital in yielding patient satisfaction levels in all aspects of patient care such as; technical quality, pain management, communication (explanations of care), interpersonal manner (courtesy and respect), discharge planning and health education, environment, time spent with doctor (frequency of visitation from caregivers), accessibility of care (responsiveness of care from caregivers), financial aspects of care, overall impression of healthcare facility etc. Patients will have the option to either submit the surveys with their contact information included or anonymously.
