1. Identifying Patients with Potential Issues:
i. Patient Profile Segmentation;
• Categorize patients based on medical conditions, dietary restrictions and preferences.
• Identify those who may require specialized meal plans or have unique dietary needs.
ii. Pre-Survey Screening:
• Implement a short pre-survey during admission to gather initial information about food preferences and restrictions.
• Direct patients with potential concerns to the comprehensive survey for further assessment.
2. Minimizing Complaints:
i. Real-time Feedback Mechanism:
• Introduce a user-friendly feedback system where patients can provide immediate input on food quality and service.
• Swiftly address any issues raised to prevent them from escalating into formal complaints.
ii. Menu diversification:
• Reduce dissatisfaction arising from limited food choices.
3. QR Code Implementation for Immediate Assistance:
i. Accessible Assistance Portal:
• Design a QR code system that links to a dedicated online portal for food service assistance.
• Patients can scan the code using their smartphones to request help and provide feedback.
ii. Quick Issue Resolution:
• When a patient scans the QR code, the food service department is notified instantly and can respond promptly.
• Resolve issues such as incorrect orders, missing items or dietary concerns without delays.
