More surgical productivity
Productivity in surgical activity has been improved.
By increasing efficiency in surgical interventions and
the time between operations, it has been possible to
increase the availability of operating theaters and to
achieve an increase of 4% in activity compared to the
previous year.
Monitoring of expenditure in outpatient
medication
Outpatient-dispensed hospital medication (MHDA)
comprises a large budget that needs to be managed
efficiently. To contribute to the proper management
of MHDA, an application has been developed that
allows each department to have access at all times
to the level of their expenditure in relation to the
assigned budget.
Patient Care > Objectives
>
Define the new PSMAR care model based on
the current strategic care model, adapt it to the
chronic-care model and position ourselves as a
leading health care institution in the next 10 years.
>
Evaluate using proven scientific evidence any
proposed incorporation of new technology or
therapies and evaluate their impact on efficiency
and sustainability.
>
Make the most of the capacity of the clinical
services through alliances that make it possible to
achieve a sufficient number of cases to guarantee
expertise in those diseases where it is important to
have a certain volume of activity.
>
Establish technological alliances in order to ensure
the necessary investment to renew equipment that
allows us to show our expertise, modernize in the
use of technologies and expand research activity.
>
Improve care efficiency and efficacy by improving
the management of theater time, increasing the
surgical replacement rate, reducing mean length of
stay, increasing surgical discharges in detriment to
medical discharges, adapting the professional roles
of doctors and nurses, maintaining and extending
cost analysis and increasing patient safety.
Quality
Quality is inexorably associated with our patient
care, teaching and scientific activity. We see it
as going beyond compliance with indicators and
standards that accredit and certify it. The way we
see PSMAR, quality is a transversal, multidisciplinary
policy that is reflected in the results in both
management and patient care. A quality that we
see reflected in the satisfaction and loyalty of
our users, who trust the services we provide and
the professionals who attend them, and in the
benchmarking results.
“The code of good professional
practices arose with the aim of
agreeing on safe, effective professional
practices and characteristics of
professional thoroughness that must
define health care in our institution.
It describes what is expected of
PSMAR professionals”.

Code of good professional practices and
code of ethics, a guide and commitment
to excellence
The code of good professional practices arises from
the need stated by the professionals to have a frame
of reference that defines recommendations and
commitments for carrying out patient care in a safe
and effective way and with the rigor that should
characterize health care, taking into consideration
the particular traits of PSMAR.
The code of good practices is based on the code
of ethics of the organization and is the result of
applying this code. It therefore entails a series of
commitments for carrying out patient care in a safe
and effective way and with the professional rigor
