Lack of

Breaching of national standard
Compromised patient care in the hospital:
Doctors should be accurate with the department hospitality about
the seriousness of patient’s health and care. Administration of
medication was not within the instruction (Australian Commission
on Safety and Quality in Health Care, 2010).
Miscommunication between consumers and providers:
Miscommunication from the side of nurses and doctors. Lack of
information given to the patient’s family led to the serious condition of
the patient.

Quality of service
The service provided to the consumers should be authentic and should engage
with the government programs that are to be conducted as per the links of health
topics and other organizational purpose (Stewart et al., 2017).
The quality should be reliable and should be adequately mentioned to the patient
about the care that they will be taken for in the service
Health professionals should be transparent about the information relevant to
the disease to the patient party for providing patient centric care (Darcın,
2015).
.
Resolving every concern of the patient should be the first priority of the health
professionals.
Communication should be build between professionals

Medication safety
It should be recommended to will tend to help improve the safety of the
patient while managing the medicines
Health professionals should accurately consider the record of the patient
and engage with the history in terms of its availability and services in the
history of patient care (Bernardo, Casadesus, Karapetrovic & Heras, 2010).
Medications should be administrated in accordance with the prescription
Medication management processes should be maintained along with the
support of the clinical approaches and the prescribing of the medications
with the manufacturing (Almeida, Domingues & Sampaio, 2014).

Recommendations with evidence based rationales
• Changes in the health care unit need to be advised as per the planning
procedure. At the same time, the services for the communication in
terms of medication should be handled effectively by the health care
unit.
• The quality service given to the patient is the foremost safety and
health standard that need to be focused by the health care unit
(Boulding, et, al., 2011).
• medication management processes should be maintained along with
the support of the clinical approaches and the prescribing of the
medications with the manufacturing(Almeida, Domingues & Sampaio,
2014).

Barriers to changes in clinical
practices :
unawareness of
the current
evidence-based
researches (Lynn et
al., 2017).
lack the sound

Lack of motivation
due to low
incentives,

Lack of
