in his needs.
 The degree to which the care / intervention provided is relevant and
appropriate to the
 patients clinical needs, given according to the current state of knowledge.
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
Access & Affordability
 Everyone should have access to quality health care. Access refers to the ability
of the individuals, to obtain health services.
 Some of the factors that can affect access are:
a) Distance: e.g. If the access to quality health care may
becomes a problem due to far distance.
b) Financial: e.g. where people cannot afford the services.
c) Culture, beliefs and values
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
Equity & Equality
 Quality services should be provided to all people who need them in a similar &
equal way.
 Quality services should be available in all parts of the country, in villages,
towns and cities without difference regarding gender, age, religion,
nationality, sects, political issues, affordability, physical appearance or any
other group, etc.
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
Technical competence & Skills
 Technical competence as an indicator of quality assurance implies that we
should have adequate knowledge and skills to carry out our functions in order
to provide quality services.
 With respect to what we cannot do, we are expected to refer them to other
centres or personnel who are more competent to handle it.
 Our practice should also be followed by- Standard Treatment Guideline.
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
Timeless& Continuity
 The degree to which the needed test, procedure, treatment, service, or
healthcare intervention is provided to the patient, at the most beneficial or
necessary time, and is coordinated among service providers and
organizations.
 Continuity means that the client gets the full range of needed health services,
and that when the case is beyond us, we refer them to the right level.
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
Safety &Reliability
 The safety of the patient and staff. The degree to which the risk of an
intervention and the risks in the care environment are reduced for the
patient and others, including the healthcare provider.
 Safety means that when providing health services, we reduce to the barest
minimum
injuries, infections, harmful adverse effects and other dangers to
clients and to staff.
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
RespectandCaring
 The degree to which the patient or a designee is involved in his/her own care
decisions and to which those providing services do so with sensitivity and
respect for the patients expectations and differences.
 It refers to the relationship among all stakeholders. We should show respect to
our clients; feel for our patients; not be rude with them; not disclose
information we get from them to irrelevant people.
 This all will bring about good relations and trust. Clients consider good
interpersonal relationship as an important component of quality of care.
PREPARED BY :- VARMORA RAXIT V.
Efficiency
 The efficiency with which services are provided. The relationship between the
outcomes (results of care) and the resources used to deliver patient care.
 Efficiency is the provision of high quality care at the lowest possible cost. We
are expected to make the best use of resources and avoid waste of our scarce
resources.

EffectivenessandEfficacy
 The degree to which the care/intervention is provided in the correct manner,
given the current state of knowledge, in order to achieve the desired/projected
outcomes.
 Type of care that produces positive change in the patient's health or his/her
quality of life. The uses of treatments & procedures that are known to be
effective with best possible efficacy in relation to the patients condition.

Amenities
 These are indirect features that can be provided by our health facilities to
make life comfortable and pleasant for clients.
 They contribute to clients' satisfaction and make clients willing to use our
services.
 For example, cleanliness, comfortable seats & beds, television sets, media,
educational materials & videos, indication signs, best possible general
facilities and physical environment etc. in the healthcare entity.

Academic staff
 Academic qualification of the academic staff directly affects the teaching. If
depth of qualification is considered, institute from a staff has taken the
education (i.e., their Bachelor, Masters or Doctorates) also has significant
impact in thinking and inclination towards research.

role in education. Continue professional experience along with teaching
develops double edged sward.
 Mere having knowledge is not sufficient for teaching, but academic staff must
have powerful communication skills. In addition to communication skills,
friendliness (up to somewhat level) with students is also required.

 Education institutes must have rich library which must have textbooks as well
as reference books.

essential in the library.
