Caregivers and healthcare professionals play a pivotal role in the overall journey of a patient. At Max@Home, we embrace a huge responsibility by advocating for a patient's health as educators and clinicians. Our team of healthcare professionals empowers patients and caregivers with the tools and techniques needed to promote healing and restore functionality.

A recent Lancet study has revealed that privatisation of healthcare institutions invariably leads to diminishing the quality of healthcare. Most of these studies were done in advance countries. In India, we have a unique scenario wherein most of the healthcare is of private ownership and 70% of the patients spend for their own healthcare. It thus emerges, that we have to innovate systems which will ensure a reasonable degree of transparency for the patient at a cost that the patient can afford. Pyramed is on a mission to ensure that patients in non-metro settings can easily avail an online opinion from city-based medical specialists. This opinion is provided through their primary doctors who are easily accessible to the patient and who can supervise the speciality care at their location without the need for the patient to travel and also ensuring continuity of care. Whereas, government-run healthcare maybe the best all over the world, in India, we have to think out of the box, because of the very large percentage of rural-based population and the financial constraints to effect an efficient and effective government-run healthcare. #healthcare, #indianhealthcare, #doctors, #ruralhealth

Prioritizing quality in the healthcare sector has emerged as a targeted goal, specifically in countries like India, where economic and industrial strides aim to stabilize and strengthen the societal structure as a whole. Developing infrastructure in healthcare facilities and adherence to quality standards ensures patient satisfaction, significant reduction in mortality and morbidity and further paves the way for prevention of diseases or accidents. Achievement of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) still seems a far fetched reality. The global pattern of the recent stagnating progress in service coverage while catastrophic health spending which increases continuously is consistent across all regions, country income groups and most countries at all income levels. WHO, in its departmental update dated 11th December,2023 emphasized the importance of greater investment and political attention to quality issues – not just access - as a cornerstone of universal health coverage. To keep matters short and crisp, we can focus on the basic pillars of healthcare quality standards to gain a better insight into the fundamentals of Quality in the Healthcare sector. 👉 Safety: As the term suggests, safety in healthcare encompasses application of evidence based practices to avoid unwanted negative outcomes, unsafe acts and strives to achieve reduction in mortality and morbidity. 👉 Patient-centered care: This being a core principle of quality assurance in healthcare settings, focuses on delivering care that is oriented according to the needs, values and preferences of patients. 👉 Timeliness: The patient's ability to access care on time whether on scheduled appointments or during any emergency ensures patient safety and resonates high standards of quality assurance protocols. 👉 Effectiveness: Reflects the extent to which medical or surgical interventions are able to achieve intended purpose. Effective services are deemed to be safe and obtain desired outcomes. 👉 Efficiency: focused on optimum utilization of resources to generate desirable outcomes, efficiency aims at providing high quality care at affordable cost while reducing waste generation at the same time. 👉 Equity: Inequalities continue to be a fundamental challenge for UHC. Equity, under these circumstances implies a condition where everyone can attain their full potential for health and well being irrespective of barriers. Understanding the very basics of quality assurance is the first step towards its implementation. Although it might seem the onus to achieve the goal lies with the health department, government and healthcare professionals, the recipients of healthcare services play a significant role in determining the efficacy of quality care. Awareness of patient rights and responsibilities along with proper engagement ensures that patients receive high quality, safe and effective care.  After all, the journey of a thousand steps starts with one. #quality #healthcare #who #isqua #qci

Recent studies show that patient engagement plays a big role in improving healthcare outcomes, motivation and satisfaction. But what is it exactly? Patient engagement is the process patients undergo to proactively participate in their own healthcare and within the healthcare system. It encourages them to be more involved, take action, and make informed decisions regarding their health. These “activated patients,” are informed decision-makers, rather than observers and instruction-followers. They play an active role in their own care, working with their medical team to improve their own health, and engaging in positive healthcare related behaviors. At Maitri, we focus on empowering patients to engage more proactively in their health journeys, and learn to activate the power of community so they can focus on what matters most. Research indicates that engaged patients experience better health outcomes, reduced readmission rates, and lower healthcare costs. When patients understand their conditions and treatment options, they can make more informed decisions about their future and manage their health more effectively. They are more likely to adhere to treatment plans, which helps reduce unnecessary procedures and hospital visits lead to significant cost savings for the healthcare system, and more importantly, better health results. Effective patient engagement fosters better communication between patients and healthcare providers, making sure patients feel heard and valued in their care journey. The benefits of being able to clearly express your needs extend beyond the healthcare system, and go a long way towards building, engaging and activating a support system when going through a health journey. Friends, family, and even fellow patients can alleviate feelings of isolation and foster a sense of community. Maitri simplifies the complex, making communicating what you need, when you need it easy, and watching your community show up for you in a meaningful way when you need them most. Maitri helps patients create and manage tasks from errands to appointments, to making sure someone checks in on you when you’re having a bad day.

Despite legal recognitions, actual access to healthcare remains unequal, suggesting that more practical solutions, beyond legal mandates, are needed to address the systemic barriers. https://lnkd.in/ddudVRXJ #healthcare #health #hospital
