At Amrutha Super Speciality Neuro & Trauma Care Centre, we believe in the fundamental dignity and equality of all our patients. Our commitment to patient rights is inspired by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and the Charter of Patients’ Rights adopted by the National Human Rights Commission.
Our patients are entitled to certain basic rights, including but not limited to:
Adequate Relevant Information: Patients have the right to receive all necessary information about their illness, proposed investigations, expected results of treatment, possible complications, and expected costs.
Access to Records and Reports: Patients or their caretakers have the right to access the originals or copies of case papers, indoor patient records, and investigation reports.
Informed Consent: Patients have the right to informed consent prior to specific tests or treatments.
Confidentiality, Human Dignity, and Privacy: Patients have the right to confidentiality, human dignity, and privacy during treatment.
In addition to these rights, patients also have certain responsibilities. These include providing all health-related information, cooperating with doctors during medical examination and treatment, following their instructions, paying the agreed hospital fees on time, and respecting the dignity of doctors and hospital staff.
We strive to ensure that these rights are given adequate protection and that operational mechanisms are set up to make these rights functional and enforceable by law. Our goal is to ensure the protection and promotion of human rights for all our patients, providing them with the kind of treatment they deserve as patients and human beings in healthcare settings.
