I was greatly moved
while reading the article,
“Patient safety and
Quality healthcare”
(QUALITY INDIA,
August 2008). The quality
of healthcare in India
is growing at a fast rate
and the article illustrates
that fact. The article
goes on to investigate the “teething problems’
that the present healthcare system in
the country is suffering from. I sincerely
believe that patient safety and Quality
healthcare form the bedrock of any medical
institution and if these two areas would be
given more attention, India would gain
recognition as a truly healthy nation.

The special report in UALITY INDIA,
August 2008, “Quality despite overload”,
was interesting. I was amazed to read about
the Chacha Nehru Bal Chikitsalaya Hospital
and its contribution in providing quality
paediatric care. This hospital is doing exemplary
work in the field of paediatric care and
has earned the distinction of becoming the
top paediatric hospital in no time.
Vishal Negi, Haridwar
Pathological laboratories are the “bulwark”
on which any form of medical care stands
(“Labs race towards Quality”, QUALITY
INDIA, August 2008). The country does not
have the requisite number of laboratories in
comparison to other developed countries. If
the country wants to better its medical facilities,
pathological laboratories should be
given a much-needed boost.
