Feedback / Testimonials from the certificate weekend course on Hospital Management Program Participants


Dr. Anita Suryanarayan M.D. (Path) - Vice President - Operations (TN & Sri Lanka),Chennai Says:

“The certificate weekend course on Hospital Management more than satisfied all the expectations with which I attended this programme.

Though belonging to a Laboratory set up rather a chain of Labs, the problems we face in the industry are the same. there are challenges with Customer Support/ HR/ Supply chain Management/ IT everyday. It is important for us as these affect our customers who are our end users and for whom we take so much care as we have been taught to do. Unless we know as heads we are not able to train our staff and the organization and end user suffers.

All these topics explained by a wonderful, cooperative and knowledgeable faculty very well selected, have brought these points very clear. Even topics like Health Insurance / Legal issues of which we do not know much but need to know, have been very clearly explained.

The topic Operation and Management brought many facts very clear and these we will use for our future Labs and centers. We will even try and use this model for our present facility to minimise energy loss and improve efficiency.

The staff of SN Academy Mr Mahali, Ms Leela, Ms Sreeedevi and others have shown a classical example in care of people, patience in answering queries, updating with information and topics and sending us the presentations.

They are a wonderful team and we are privileged to know them all. From Mr Mahali and his team also we have learned a lot.

My thanks to Dr Badrinath for constituting and understanding the need of training and this wonderful group of people who are the spirit of the Academy.

I look forward to attending more programmes and yes, my candidate for the next course is already selected.Wish you all the very best”

Dear Shri Mahalingam Sir,

Sankara Netralaya is said to provide outstanding service to the people and now its very clear,the academy could provide and exhibit its excellency in imparting knowledge to others! This short time Hospital Management course is a fabulous one for the professionals in fine tuning their attitude and professional approach in managing a hospital.At first i thought iam making a mockery of myself in selecting this course as I am only a PG degree holder in Biochem..But after attending four to five sessions, it gave me a clear path where i stand!I sure have an idea now what to do next, and that would obviously be at a hospital.

The faculties in each and every session were highly talented and gave us the right points in a very crystal clear manner. These twelve sessions were highly informative for sure! and last but not least the SN academy colleagues were moving very friendly with us. I am sure all my shyness bursted and flew away in the clouds! Their is even more loads of things to learn from our sessions faculties i believe! Thank you sir.

Sankara Nethralaya Academy’s Hospital Management course comes as a boon to aspiring healthcare entrepreneur from Bangladesh.

 

 

Basically I am from engineering background but presently involved in health care service provider. We run a telemedicine center in Bangladesh. We are connected with Apollo group of hospitals, India and Medica Super specialty Hospitals, Kolkata. Recently we have decided to make a super specialty hospital in Bangladesh. That’s why I was searching for a course to learn about hospital management. I got the information from Google that Sankara Nethralaya is going to organize a daylong seminar on Hospital Management, I took the opportunity and attended the seminar. The seminar was excellent and very informative. From there I came to know that Sankara Nethralaya is going to organize a Hospital Management Certification Course. I went through the list of course modules and found interesting and encouraging to join the course. Then I spoke to Mr. A Mahalingam and discussed details about the course and finally joined the course.

From day one, I recognized that this was a professionally organized course for professionals. How much we can take back home from the course depends on how much we are involved in learning process and how much we can accommodate.

The faculty was well comprised of wise experts in their chosen fields with a lot of practical knowledge. The classroom provided a good platform for them to teach us how to integrate theory in the practice field. The modules gave us an introduction to the various facets of running a hospital finance, administration, personnel, law, technology, human resource etc.

The faculty was open for discussions and questions and that encouraged us to mail them the feedback and doubts we had. The entire experience was very enriching and has sown the seed in my mind to learn more about the various topics.

Ms K M Sindhu,

Sr. Executive – Operations, Apollo First Med Hospitals


Speaks about this weekend Certificate course in Hospital Management :

 

My idea on this exposure is to implement the same, wherever it applicable in the hospital industry that I work in. I would like to bring in the team building so as to avoid any communication in the process, for eg: a patient who is an insurance person, needs to be initially explained about the authorization, verification, these processes were happening, but I would like to focus more on that so as to improve the relationship with patients which will ultimately help in retaining the customers, communication skills will also develop, which again can give us many ideas on the ISO Standards, which we are again planning to improvise, modify, for process improvement and also quality improvement.

 

The above mentions explains on how I develop myself in terms of team building, communication, quality, and leadership, since I am handling the accounting process we already on way of the managerial accounting and my plan is to more focusing on the improvement on the revenue part by concentrating more on the corporate tie up’s for inpatient, out patient’s services and Health checks and to striving to get new more insurance tie up’s and to create the packages of the surgeries.  With the guidance of the management I am planning to bring in of more consultants on various specialties based on our requirements which will improve our hospital in terms of the profit, which again needs continuous discussions with the top management, on both administrative and medical level.

 

Thirdly, I would like to more focusing on implementing the Electronic Medical Records in our organization where I can reduce more on money, manpower and time consumption.  The main and foremost factor to adapt this system is to reduce the space consumption and lifelong storage of the patient’s details.  It will improve the quality and accuracy on the patient’s records.

I would further like to focus on resource management and technology, where I will put it in such a way that I can utilize the manpower for various processes which will again simplify, improve and understanding the process in a better way. Information technology plays an important role these days, for which I feel proud of having such an exposure which will again help me in implementing the new software which we are in the learning curve, new software called Med-mantra, a TCS product, which has many things to learn so that it will help the patients and the doctors in understanding and retrieving the historical data from any of the Apollo Hospitals.

 

Finally I am going to focus on supply chain management where I will get to know of what a hospital, rather what our hospital requires in terms of production. Supply chain activities will cover everything from product development, sourcing, production, and logistics, as well as the information systems needed to coordinate various activities. We will be in need of many consumables and equipments, which again need a clear study whether the introduction of such products will improve the hospital, both in terms of customer satisfaction and quality improvement. This will again help in the whole process in terms of customer satisfaction, quality improvement and process improvement.

The current scenario and updated technology plays a vital role in healthcare sector, for which much attention and concentration is required. One needs awareness for bringing in new practices and practically to be implementing in place which leads into the success of the process which is the core objective of this course and that is my whole initiative of the process.

 

Mr. Bhavani Sekhar.S,

Asst.Manager – Apollo Hospitals – Tondiarpet, Chennai:

 

In the current scenario technology plays a vital role in the healthcare industry, for which much awareness is required. One also needs awareness for bringing in new practices, in order to succeed in the process which is the core objective of this Certificate Course in Hospital Management course and that is my whole idea of the joining the course.

 

Ms S.Soundarya, Anna University:

The topics covered during the lectures spread over 12 weeks were highly informative and helped in understanding the management aspects of a hospital. Moreover, there is manifold increase in the complexity and processes that take place in the successful management of a modern day hospital. This in turn has lead to a tremendous demand for efficient professionals who can handle the day-to-day chores of hospital management and administration. I am confident that the input received over the last 12 weeks on various aspects of hospital management will help me in turning out to be an efficient manager. Since I am not part of the industry at present, the implementation of the knowledge acquired depends on the opportunity that I would be getting in future.

 

 

Gautham Rajakrishnan, Biomedical Engineering Student, The University of Auckland :

 

First of all, let me thank you Mahalingam Sir, your battalions and all other officials of Sankara Nethralaya for giving me an opportunity to complete the certificate course on hospital management successfully. It gives immense pleasure for having enrolled myself with your esteemed institution for the above certificate course. As a biomedical engineer, my M.S degree at the University of Auckland and this certificate course have rather helped me a lot to increase my knowledge and exposure in medical field. I hereby assure to propagate to all my colleagues those related to hospital field to take up your certificate course and make best use of this course knowledge.

 

Ms Ashwini R, MS

Bio Engineering, Syracuse University, New York:

This 12 week course in Hospital Management has provided me an opportunity to interact with the experts in various areas of Management. It has exposed us to several issues that need to be tackled while providing professional healthcare. This course has given us an idea of what to expect and how to deal with commonly faced problem while dealing with patients. It brought together youth and experience and enabled an exchange of ideas between likeminded people. The campus and the faculty provided a great environment for learning. I thank the organizers for enabling me to utilize the break between semesters more productively.

 

Testimonial Ms Mrs SrividhyaGanesh /AO /Jaya Eye Care Centre, Chennai

 

 

My husband being an alumnus of Sankara Nethralaya, we keep getting mailers giving information on various happenings in the institution. It was one such mailer informing about a certificate course in hospital management that drew my attention.

I wanted to get some idea about what was involved in managing a hospital and the fact that the course timings were convenient, the duration short but not too short and finally, the impeccable reputation of the institution – all contributed to me applying for the course. Within two days, I was enrolled in the course. Everything was seamlessly managed through email. My doubts were cleared, online payments were arranged and I was all set to attend the course.

From the first day, I recognized that this was a professionally organized course for professionals. How much we can take back home from the course depends on how much we are involved in the learning process.

The faculty comprised of experts in their chosen fields with a lot of practical knowledge. The classroom provided a good platform for them to teach us how theory and practice could be integrated. The modules themselves gave us an introduction to the various facets of running a hospital – finance, administration, personnel, law, technology, human resource, etc.

The faculty were open to discussions and questions and in fact encouraged us to mail them with feedback and doubts if any. The entire experience was very enriching and has sown the seed in my mind to learn more about the various topics.

I hope SN Academy arranges periodical one day seminars on individual topics so that we are able to keep abreast of what is happening in the management field. I also hope that in future more faculty from Sankara Nethralaya also participate in the program as collectively they have a wealth of experience which they can share with us.

My best wishes to SN Academy for the success of all its ventures and endeavours.

Overall the course provided us an insight into the functioning of hospital administration.

The various reference or interesting material related to hospital administration and individual growth sent to the participants was of great help in understanding various aspects and enriched our knowledge and understanding.
