In order to improve the quality of care in our public hospitals, the care given should not only focus on local health care needs and priorities but also reflect international high standards Attending the clients promptly and improving communication is the key to improving patient satisfaction Merely satisfying the patients may not be sufficient to gain his loyalty.
