Dr Dewan noted that the two-year process had improved the hospital’s overall functioning. “Every member — doctors, nurses, technicians, and support staff — contributed to meeting NABH standards. The process has strengthened our emergency response systems and clinical protocols,” he said.
Dean Dr Maria described the recognition as “a step forward” rather than the final goal. “Quality improvement is a continuous process. This milestone sets the stage for further enhancements in patient care,” she said.
