常立榮，張?zhí)m成，劉文成，解放軍306醫(yī)院，品牌質(zhì)量建設(shè)辦公室

　　一個醫(yī)院的發(fā)展必須有一個明確的定位。向社會和患者提供怎樣的優(yōu)質(zhì)服務(wù)。優(yōu)秀的醫(yī)院精髓是“以人為本”，以調(diào)動人的潛能和創(chuàng)造性為出發(fā)點，以全新的視覺進行人性化管理的一種理念。人人做到了識大體、顧大局，主動為患者著想，為病人提供便捷、高效、優(yōu)質(zhì)醫(yī)療服務(wù)。歡樂促奮進，創(chuàng)新求發(fā)展。

　　約翰·霍普金斯醫(yī)院患者安全和質(zhì)量部門的高級副總裁彼得·普羅諾弗斯特（Peter Pronovost）稱，患者對醫(yī)院最大的要求就是希望醫(yī)院把自己當人看。他和該醫(yī)院的患者關(guān)系部主任簡·希爾（Jan Hill）一起，從患者來信和建議中列出了一個患者的愿望清單：1.請讓我好好睡覺。睡眠可以幫我更好地恢復(fù)，所以請盡量不要再晚上測量生命體征，也不要在晚十點到早六點之間抽血。如有特殊情況，請?zhí)崆巴ㄖ?/p>

　　2.請護士站降低噪音。這一點很重要，尤其是晚上我們需要睡眠的時候。晚上請關(guān)了我房間的電視、收音機、電腦屏幕等，確保這些噪音或光線不會影響我的睡眠。

　　3.不要弄丟我的個人物品。請把我的東西都列個清單，并貼上帶我的名字和醫(yī)療記錄編號的標簽，這樣我的個人物品才不至于放錯。這些物品可以讓我的生活更舒適，請像照顧我一樣照顧這些我的物品。

　　4.進門前請先敲門。這是對我個人以及我的隱私的尊重。請先向我介紹自己、和我握手或眼神交流，并用我喜歡的方式稱呼我。

　　5.確保我的白紙板及時更新。這樣我就能知道哪位醫(yī)生和護士負責我的治療，也能了解我每天的計劃。在床邊放一個筆記本，并在首頁列出我的姓名、護理病區(qū)、病房號和房間電話，這樣我就可以把所有資料和卡放到一起。

　　6．如果我病情有變，請及時通知我和我的家人。彼此交流要公開，如有延誤請及時通知我，這樣有助于我緩解焦慮。

　　7.保持病房清潔。請每天擦地板和桌椅等表面防止細菌傳播，及時清理垃圾箱并打掃浴室，讓浴室聞起來是干凈的。如果你是我的管家，請跟我打招呼，我希望認識照顧我的人。

　　8.聽我說話讓我參與到自己的治療中。請使用我能聽懂的語言，確保我理解我的治療計劃。

　　9.請在房間和醫(yī)院提供使用說明。這樣我才能知道重要的東西都放在哪里，怎樣操作電視，如何點餐，什么時候更換床上用品。我在這里是個客人，這些對我很重要。

　　10.請時刻保持專業(yè)素養(yǎng)。你可能是在休息，但是仍是醫(yī)院的員工，一舉一動仍然代表了醫(yī)院。
