Observations:-
As according to given assignment our task was to observe the Hospital’s staff people
that how they interact with customers i.e. patients or their relatives, for this we first
approach the help desk for the permission to stay there. After concerned with their H.R.
department people they permit us to stand near the counters for observation.
Mainly there are eight places that I had observed where interaction between a customer
and the hospital staff member happen. These are as listed below:-
Help Desk
O.P.D. Registration Desk
Billing Desk
Cashier Desk
Health Insurance Desk
Report Collection Desk
Admission Desk
Pharmacy Desk
This division shows how they divide the work as it is required in the hospital to proceed
everything so fast and on time because mistake of just few seconds can take a life of
someone.
So this is the good sign for that hospital management. It’s beneficial for both the
management and the customers.
The authorized person at these counters are well dressed, talk politely to everyone,
trying to communicate in the suitable language with which one feels comfort.
During the observation I observed that the person on the help desk was facing some
difficulties to communicate with a foreigner couple, this was due to the language barrier.
In the solution of that they can appoint someone who have the knowledge about some
foreign languages because foreigners prefer such kind of premier hospitals for their
treatments.
As for a marketer it is required to know what customer expects from our side, means
value to money. For this side Max Hospital trying to utilize their main motive towards the
customer satisfaction for this they provide them better care, better quality which I had
seen there.
It was rain on that day and I observed that the guards were protecting the person from
the rain with umbrella and dropped them to their car and also take care of others who
want to enter in hospital. It deliver better image about the organization as everyone
knows how first and last impression matters.
In marketing perspective if I take this seen the umbrella contains the logo of Max
Hospital which shows the promotion strategy used behind it.
But one negative point I had observed that there was no security check at the
entrance, it made an negative impression from me about the organization.
