BUSINESS RESEARCH METHODS
Expectations and standards for safety of patients
The development of patient’s safety and standards can serve several purposes. The
standards can establish minimum performance levels, uniformity and consistency across
multiple organizations and individuals. The developing of standards and set expectations
process for patients affect health professionals and organizations (Bresler, & Stake, 2017).
Standards for drugs and devices
The standard for drugs and devices are set for health and safety purposes. The
implementation and agreement of standard devices and drugs is measured and regulated by
regulatory authorities like food and drugs authority in the U.S.
Health care organizations performance expectations and
standards
The implementation and agreement of healthcare performance standards, achievement
and measurements is emerging in the consumerism era and facilitated by; establishment of
health care quality goals; improved access, quality control, cost control while embracing
public policy, giving priority to reporting and measuring of performance of health care
systems and creating focus on cultural excellence on healthcare. The performance and
expectations standards also helps in promoting active stakeholders collaborations.
General problems statement
Performance standards establish performance minimum levels and establish
consistency and uniformity in organizations and individuals. Another aim and goal for setting
standards is that they are required to set expectations.

BUSINESS RESEARCH METHODS
Specific problem statement
Organizations and individual performance are determined by standards. The
dissemination and publication of standards helps in regulation and expectation setting for
purchases and consumers. Processes of regulatory is set to helps patients and organizations
(Flick, 2015).
Purpose statement
The purpose is to develop standards and set expectations process for patients affect
health professionals and organizations.
Research questions
The research questions in this Is
1. What are the Standards and expectations for safety of patients?
2. What are the set standards for drugs and devices in the country?
3. What are the Performance standards and expectations for health care organizations?
Literature Review
The reform and modernization of healthcare, the optimization of the management and
structure of the industry, the development of medical technologies, and the improvement of
the professional level of specialists working in healthcare are aimed at improving the health
status of the population and the medical and demographic situation in the country. However,
an equally important and significant task of these measures is to improve the quality of life of
people, an integral component of which many experts attribute public satisfaction with
medical care (Kumar, 2019).
Gaps in the research

BUSINESS RESEARCH METHODS
Over the years, the system of outpatient care has undergone significant changes,
expressed in increasing the material interest of local doctors and nurses in their work,
improving material and technical equipment, introducing modern medical technologies for
treating and examining patients. In publications devoted to the implementation of the national
project “Health” and the effectiveness of measures taken at the first stages of healthcare
modernization, it is emphasized that patient satisfaction with medical care determines the
social effectiveness of medical institutions and the healthcare system as a whole.
Conflicting assertions and theories in the research
The formation of patient satisfaction with medical care is influenced by many factors:
qualification and professionalism of medical personnel, interpersonal relationships,
conditions of care, its outcome, etc. There should be a correspondence of the medical care
provided to the patient’s needs (population), his expectations, and the current level of medical
development science and technology (Mackey, & Gass, 2015).
