Description

A priority for the Euroclinic Group is the continuous increase in the satisfaction of patients and their relatives, as responding to the needs, comments and observations of patients is an important tool for improving the Group's services. In this context, a sample telephone survey of patient satisfaction is carried out on a monthly basis among approximately 600 patients, in collaboration with a specialized external partner. Inpatients (either adults or the parents of children who were hospitalized at the Children's Euroclinic) are selected after the end of hospitalization and discharge, while outpatients are selected after the completion of their visit.

The questions for measuring satisfaction and recording any complaints are carried out based on a specific questionnaire, which includes the following sections to be evaluated:

 Admission Process

 Behavior and service of nursing staff

 Behavior and service of medical staff

 Behavior and service of administrative staff

 Cleanliness of premises

 Cleanliness – room conditions/infrastructure

 Discharge procedure

 Service from the Accounting Office or the Treasury

In addition, comments can also be sent via e-mail or expressed during the patients' stay / hospitalization. In all cases, staff inform their supervisors/Department Managers, who are responsible for promptly handling complaints and taking necessary corrective action. All observations and suggestions of patients and their relatives are always managed with absolute confidentiality and responsibility.

Unlike what happens in other Hospitals, the Euroclinic Group patient satisfaction survey is carried out by an external, independent, reliable and certified research company with the aim of ensuring the impartiality and objectivity of patient responses.

The company has ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2013 (ISO 27001 is an international standard for information security management GDPR encourages the use of certification systems such as ISO 27001:2013, since this standard describes the requirements that must be met by an organization in order to comprehensively and effectively manage its information security.)

Impact on Society

Satisfaction survey of a sample of 13,105 patients by an external independent research company for 2021.

 

At Euroclinic Group, we consistently invest in quality and prove it with actions!

9 out of 10 patients hospitalized or visiting the clinics of the Euroclinic Group state that they are completely satisfied with the service and care they received during their stay there.

At the Euroclinic Group, having as our main goal the provision of the highest quality human-centered health services, we take the opinion of each patient very seriously and consider it valuable. That is why we systematically carry out surveys to measure the satisfaction of our patients and their companions, consistently from 2018 until today.

The quality assessment is based on 4 main parameters:

  1. Scientific level and quality of medical staff services
  2. Training and quality in patient care/service by nursing and administrative staff
  3. Quality of facilities, equipment, infrastructure, cleanliness
  4. Quality of patient care systems and processes

The survey was carried out on a random sample of 13,105 people (8,193 inpatients and 4,912 outpatients of the Euroclinic of Athens and the Euroclinic for Children) and the respondents were asked to evaluate the services of our two clinics.

As one of the pioneers in the Private Health Sector, we consider it our duty to share with absolute transparency our performance in all areas related to patient service and care, setting the bar for quality in Health even higher.

We are pleased to share with you our results for 2021:
