WE GIVE YOU THE BEST
Improving patient care has become a priority for all health care providers with the overall objective of achieving a high degree of patient satisfaction. Greater awareness among the public, increasing demand for better care, keener competition, more health care regulation, the rise in medical malpractice litigation, and concern about poor outcomes are factors that contribute to this change.
The St. Sebastian’s Hospital is one such centre which seek to provide timely, quality services to the people with the values that we hold dear as the people of God. The present infrastructures and facilities does not cope up the public health demand and will raise questions about better health access.
