Study of Hospital Community Awareness through Patient Informatics

Abstract

The development of healthcare facilities is only not influenced by the opening of healthcare centers and hospitals but more so by their effective administration and value-orientation. If hospitals or the healthcare centers are well managed we can􀳦t deny quantitative-cumqualitative improvement in the healthcare services. The scope of service now includes health care guidance, preventive care, post clinical attention, care and advice. Hospitals may handle a person who is not a patient and hence we call a person visiting a hospital a customer and not a patient. Like any other business, the management of hospitals has changed from an art to a science and then to a technology. Today􀳦s hospitals use a lot of medical hardware and software in health care activity. Health care decisions are based on diagnostic aids and assistance through an X-ray, scanning, pathological tests, and knowledge base of case history, etc. the operational aspect of the health care is supported by a lot of equipment and instrument specially developed for the purpose. The role played by these aids is so vital and important that it is called medical engineering. The medical engineering has helped the medical professionals to reduce the drudgery of health care and concentrate on diagnosis, prescriptions and treatment. The management of the infrastructure of equipment, instruments, etc. is very important management function supporting the effect of offering a distinctive service to the customer.
