Successful patient satisfaction programs hinge on the constant commitment and engagement of the hospital staff members that serve those patients, day-in and day-out. Daily assessment and review of patient satisfaction standards, expectations, and best practices helps ensure that team members who consistently provide excellent service receive the recognition and appreciation they deserve – and that those who struggle with certain aspects of service receive the additional, ongoing training and counseling necessary to drive improvement.
