Implementing Corrective Actions for Re-Accreditation in HR Practices at Tertiary Care Hospitals of Tier 2 City
Main Article Content
Abstract
The primary focus of the study is to identify and solve the re-accreditation problems of the tertiary care Hospital, coupled with ensuring adherence to accreditation standards. The accreditation is a recognition and demonstrates a hospital's commitment to providing quality patient care and adhering to best healthcare management practices. The hard work needed to attain and maintain this accreditation involves thorough attention to several operational issues, of which the administrative/ HR department manages a number of these.
Under Re-Accreditation, periodic audits are executed to validate if the process standards laid down for hospital quality are sustained. The challenges faced by the HR department are manifold. These may range from proper, up-to-date documentation to maintaining staff competencies or adhering to rigid protocols regarding staff welfare and care about the patients attended to. The present study aims to identify such challenges in totality and suggest and implement remedial measures to effectively address them and develop strategic solutions so the department can easily overcome them. Therefore, the research's objective would be to ensure that tertiary care hospitals not only achieve but retain their accreditation continuously and keep improving the quality of health services.
The present research will thus aid with specific, actionable insights and strategies for the administrative/ HR departments. Secondly, identifying deficits with corrective actions will help align and sustain the enforcement and implementation of standards according to accreditation, as per the requirements, and hence maintain the continuance of accreditation and improvement in healthcare delivery. The study also focuses on the challenges of Re-Accreditation that the departments face and implements effective solutions for executing compliance, patient care, and overall hospital performance coupled with a good reputation.
