Patient Relations
Patient relations is a planned effort to establish and improve degrees of mutual understanding between the hospital and the patient and his/her relatives, with the primary objective of assisting the patient, and the secondary objective being helping the hospital to deserve, acquire and retain a good reputation. It is a way of developing reciprocal understanding and goodwill, which is one of the essential components of the organisational activities and services rendered by a hospital.
