/ Industry Expertise / Healthcare / Hospitals & Clinics Hospitals & Clinics Creating a strong service culture in healthcare is critical today, not just to ensure high HCAHPS scores, but because it’s the right thing to do — for patients, employees and other customers. Today’s customer-oriented patients expect an exceptional experience in every healthcare interaction they have, and for good reason. Effective communication and patient involvement have been shown to make a positive difference in clinical outcomes. But in the hectic day-to-day of working in a hospital, clinic or physician’s office, even the most well-intentioned healthcare staff can forget how important each moment is to a patient’s overall experience. To build a more service-oriented culture, you have to develop the behaviors, mindset and motivation to make quality of care and service the best they can be in every single interaction. Integrity Solutions helps hospitals, clinics, physician offices and other healthcare organizations do this through: Reconnecting each person with the purpose of their job Identifying how they serve patients and other customers Appreciating how others serve them and make their job possible Learning proven communication and problem-solving skills Developing attitudes, motives and values that support your mission Engaging managers and leaders to support and model these behaviors Create an Exceptional Patient Experience EVERYONE BENEFITS FROM A STRONG SERVICE CULTURE: We’ve worked with over 150 hospitals and other healthcare organizations, developing the patient-centric skillsets, mindset and motivation of more than 200,000 people.
