Market dynamics, rapid changes in customer behaviour and regulatory demands are making it difficult for the healthcare industry to manage everything. That’s where the role of healthcare consultants comes into play.

T

QWAZENT HYRE: 3-WAY HIGHLY SPECIALISED RECRUITMENT SYSTEM The biggest and the most notable change that the healthcare consulting sphere has witnessed is the increasing adoption of technology. Digitalization in

THE DIFFERENTIATING FACTORS The healthcare industry is an everevolving marketplace. Instead of running the company on a rigid model, Dr. Nath believes in initiating and implementing change mechanisms to stay ahead of its competitors. Here’s how Qwazent differentiates itself from other similar-sized players in the market: 





Qwazent Hyre, a fully automated healthcare recruitment technology platform, facilitates ease of hiring across the healthcare spectrum by connecting potential talent, hiring experts and organisations in one place. Qwazent’s technology backed process efficiencies are a combination of world-class executive search practices with the agility of the fast-paced recruitment technology.

Diverse and professional team of expert recruiters who not only have a thorough understanding of the industry but also have par excellence research capabilities.

The company’s vast industry mapping and proven methodologies help Qwazent not only deliver on time but also provide high-quality services.

“Qwazent’s tech platform coupled with Hybrid mode of working has allowed the company to create an ecosystem of expert recruiters who are based in various geographies and have the resources and capability to reach out to the global

candidate pool. This way, Qwazent meets the demands of the industry in an effective and efficient manner,” quotes Dr. Nath.

FOSTERING THE CULTURE OF TEAMWORK Dr. Nath believes that teamwork is the bedrock on which all successful businesses are built as it makes progress easier and enables the group to overcome challenges that would have stymied an individual. Therefore, the company fosters values such as empathy and trust. Qwazent’s hybrid work model necessitates a company culture built on such values as with virtual teams, building coordination and trust is inherently a challenge.

However, Qwazent’s tight-knit community ensures that every employee has ownership of their ideas, feels welcomed in the workplace, and is developed professionally for today’s competitive business environment. Given Qwazent’s feedback-driven workplace culture, the team is both recognized as well as incentivized in order to improve and excel every day.

“We as a team balance between performance, personal needs as well as requirements. Qwazent ensures to support each team member in their professional journey,” says Upasona Das, Consultant, Qwazent Talent Solutions.

founder and is a self-centred approach - the success of an organisation, in the long run, is dependent upon building an independent culture and an identification of the Company itself. Building a successful organization is possible by an efficient team that follows the company culture and carries out the processes of the company diligently, eventually leading to success.

Their success mantra is to be custodians of the happy professional lives of the candidates as well as clients. Qwazent endeavours to fulfil dreams and go beyond just job placements. With this same success methodology, since its establishment, Qwazent has been recognized globally as one of the Top 50 Healthcare Companies at the 2018 Smart Healthcare Conference and was featured as one of the 10 Most Promising Healthcare Consultants in 2021 by CIO Review India.

As an entrepreneur, Dr Nath strongly believes that growth should never stop.

She says that while healthcare has come a long way, especially post-pandemic, it is integral to keep reinventing ourselves to meet the demands of this dynamic industry. To that end, since their inception six years ago, Qwazent has constantly kept evolving to better serve the ever-changing talent needs of the Healthcare industry.

REPORT CHALLENGES FACED BY THE INDUSTRY Every industry has to face particular challenges, the healthcare consulting industry is still at its earlier stage and the need of expansion is required in order to function with full efficiency.

Here is a list of some of the challenges faced by the healthcare consulting industry:  EXPENSIVE SERVICES The expensive services by the industry are restricting its growth. Some hospitals and medical institutions are unable to pay the high fees because it exceeds the budget. Consequently, either the hospitals have to find an alternative way or the consulting providers have to reduce their fees. In both ways, the industry has to suffer losses.

Apart from this, the industry has to face a higher rate of taxes that adds up to the operating costs of the service providers.

28 | The Global Hues | Vol. 2

| Issue 6 | June 2022

 CYBER SECURITY THREAT Since the healthcare industry uses a lot of information and data from medical institutions, it makes the industry more prone to cyber danger. Cyber crimes create a situation of precariousness for the industry.

Dealing with a lot of data includes the risk of loss of information. This loss may cost a huge amount of money. Hence, the data and cybersecurity issues make the healthcare industry lagging.  MULTI-SOURCING APPROACH Instead of using one size fits all approach, the Healthcare industry uses a multi-sourcing approach to cater to larger numbers of companies. This breaks the industry into smaller pieces to carry out the tasks. But it does not ensure that these companies hold expertise in that particular area. The government, healthcare providers and payers are pushing the multiple consulting firms to collaborate that put a negative impact on the industry.

MEDICUALITY On A Mission To Create A World-Class Healthcare Ecosystem

“Medicuality believes in empowering the hospitals to implement quality services so that they take up the future inspections on their own & not depend on us further.”

DR. SAVITHA NARASIMHAIAH Founder & CEO, Medicuality

D

eveloping countries often struggle to provide high-quality and equitable care to all. However, India has made giant strides in improving its healthcare system and providing better healthcare facilities to millions of people. As the nation strives to implement improved healthcare innovations, coupled with capacity building to ensure the enactment of new strategies; there arises the need of highly distinguished healthcare consulting firms to help healthcare companies deliver highquality care to their patients efficiently and cost-effectively.

With a mission to handhold hospitals with state-of-the-art training techniques, a highly renowned healthcare consultancy firm, Medicuality Healthcare Services was founded in 2021. Medicuality, an acronym for Medical Quality, is a leading quality management and accreditation solutions consultancy that helps hospitals to deliver quality

| Issue 6 | June 2022

services and apply for accreditations and certifications.

A company that started with hospitals with 10-20 beds, soon expanded to hospitals with 100 - 300 beds. Currently, Medicuality is working relentlessly with medical colleges with over 1000 beds.

They have expanded their quality development into the academics of medical &

dental colleges by handholding for NAAC Accreditations. Many projects are in the pipeline for accreditations to Infertility centres.

THE SUPERWOMAN BEHIND MEDICUALITY Meet Dr. Savitha Narasimhaiah, the Founder and CEO of Medicuality Healthcare Services. With an uncanny ability

to empower each employee working in Medicuality, Dr. Savitha heads the entire operation of the organisation. Dr Savitha is a medical doctor with MBBS & MD in Microbiology with about 22 years of rich experience in the healthcare industry.

Her tale from working in government & private hospitals to victoriously heading Medicuality is an inspiration for all the women aiming to stand tall in the business community.

Agile and resilient Dr. Savitha is invaluable when it comes to formulating and communicating new strategic decisions.

She possesses the requisite expertise in handholding hospitals to get accredited to JCI/NABH/NABL accreditations.

Her indispensable and incomparable leadership is paramount to providing an agreed-upon goal for the success of Medicuality.

“We train hospital staff to deliver quality services, where ultimately the final beneficiaries are patients and it is indeed worth the investment,” mentions Dr Savitha.

THE SERVICE PORTFOLIO With the motto of strengthening safety skills, Medicuality provides an array of services:  Trainings: Comprehensive Onsite Training Programmes on Hospital infection control, Antibiotic policy & Antibiotic stewardship awareness Sessions, and Training Sessions on Quality enhancement & facility management in hospitals, Building, fire, water & electrical safety, Utility, Equipment, Laboratory & Radiation safety in Hospitals  Accreditation Service: NABH 5th Edition/ Full NABH standards Entry-level NABH Accreditations to Eye Care orgranisation, Infertility & Dialysis centres NABH- Emergency departments, Blood banks  Business Development: Hospital Planning & Design, Operations & Management, and

EXCELLING IN HOSPITALS ACCREDITATION “I started my journey as a NABH assessor & found that most hospitals were not being guided appropriately by the local consultants. The managements end up paying lakhs of rupees for getting nothing,” says Dr Savitha.

There are about 10 - 12 chapters of quality implementation to attain accreditation. The chapters on Patient Care, Medication Management & Hospital Infection Control are always neglected by non-medical consultants. Unfortunately, the focus is put on illegitimate activities like faking data & HR files/ medical records/quality indicators.

Hospitals are usually kept in dark.

Besides, despite awareness, many hospitals believe that hospital accreditations are all about biomedical waste & blood spill management. Medicuality opposes the belief and follows a totally different approach.

"We bring super-specialist doctors to confidence, especially on hospital infection control measures, medication management at various levels of care & reinforce to follow the statutory norms for safe patient care", reiterates Dr Savitha.

Furthermore, to ensure top-notch accreditation services, the company has formed 9 Phases: Gap Analysis, Project Planning, Review, Modification, & Development, Training Employees, Implementation, Clinical Audits, Mock Survey, Fine Tuning & Tracer Practice, and Preparation for the Final Surveys.

MEDICUALITY’S DIFFERENTIATING FACTORS In an ultra-competitive marketplace, Medicuality stands out from the crowd, which as per the market framework, is quite essential. Here are a few differentiating factors:

Financial Management 

Medicuality comprises a team of professional doctors and gentle & caring nurses proficient in their respective fields.



The company works on the quality enhancement in all areas like

ACADEMICS R&D SERVICES Medicuality also provides NAAC valueadded course training to faculty and students of:

Emergency Rooms, Intensive Care Units, Labor Rooms, Operation Theatres, Laboratories etc. 

Medicuality empowers the hospitals to implement quality services so that they take up the future inspections on their own and not depend on the company further.



Medicuality effortlessly transforms a workplace into a world-class facility by implementing all accreditation standards. It is done via conducting regular trainings, internet audits, and committee meetings.



The industry is still learning to track medication errors, hospital-acquired infections, & sentinel events and doesn’t have reliable captured data to review it. Medicuality helps hospitals understand the standards for easy implementation & maintenance of the same.

THE CLIENTELE Truth be told, clients are the first priority who makes any business successful.

Medicuality, since its inception, has always tried to secure quality customers.

The company’s clientele includes famous medical colleges like Katuri Medical College, Guntur GSL Medical College, Rajahmundry, NRI Medical College, Vijayawada, and many more in Andhra Pradesh.

Medicuality has already completed NABH projects with some of the leading single & Multispeciality hospitals in Karnataka and a few in pipeline for accreditation to eyecare organisations & Infertility centres.

“We have been with many hospitals on their 2nd & 3rd round of inspections just to empower them & appreciate their consistent efforts in maintaining quality,” mentions Dr Savitha with pride.

THE VISION AHEAD Medicuality envisions becoming the prime national healthcare training and accreditation consultancy functioning at par with global benchmarks.

Medicuality lives with a mission to handhold hospitals with state-of-the-art training techniques to meet the national/ international standards of accreditation, focusing on patient quality care & safety through the process of self-assessment.

In Dr Savitha’s words, “We are always out of our comfort zone, travel extensively & conduct hand-on trainings for a reasonable price with a passion to bring in standardised & protocol based patient care & safety.”

How To Help Your Team Reduce The Workplace

O

ne of the most important aspects of a business is its employees. A business grows when the team is healthy, not just physically but also mentally.

Nowadays, workplace anxiety has become a cause of concern for both the employees as well as employers. According to the survey conducted in 2021, 55% of working professionals have workplace anxiety.

If you feel that anyone in the team is suffering from workplace anxiety, help them to stay calm. Communication is the key to solving any problem, talk to that person, listen to them without any judgement and try to reach out to either your senior or the concerned authority. Let’s first look at the reasons that cause workplace anxiety:

36 | The Global Hues | Vol. 2

| Issue 6 | June 2022

WHAT CAUSES WORKPLACE ANXIETY? The root cause of workplace anxiety differs from person to person. However, here are some of the common reasons which make an employee feel anxious at the workplace:  EXCESS OF WORK PRESSURE Work pressure causes a great amount of stress among employees. If an employee is feeling constant stress, it might affect their work performance. Work overload can also lead to mistakes from the employee’s end. Employees start to feel overpressured with work and often make decisions based on their anxiety. For example, a stressed employee may turn down a promotion if it involves more managerial tasks, public speaking, or travelling to new locations.  WORK PERFORMANCE Performance anxiety is something that everyone feels at different points in their career. But, if a person is taking too much pressure on performance review, it impacts the productivity and the efficiency of an employee. The fear of getting fired makes people anxious and gives stress.  CONFLICT WITH COWORKERS It is okay to have differences of opinion among employees but it should not cause any sort of conflict among them. Conflicts with coworkers are one of the major reasons behind workplace anxiety. A person constantly feels anxious about what others are thinking of him/her. A business can grow only when all employees are working together as a team.  LESS PROMOTIONAL OPPORTUNITIES If an organization doesn't provide enough opportunities for employees to grow, they won’t put much effort into the work.

Promotion serves as a motivational factor and also helps in fulfilling their financial needs better. The financial burden is the major cause of anxiety and stress. If employees are getting an appropriate salary according to their role and qualification, they feel satisfied and put more effort to increase their productivity.

HOW TO MANAGE WORKPLACE ANXIETY? Treat your team members as your family. Make your employees feel that they are important to the company. The contribution of each individual is equally essential irrespective of the designation. These are the basic things that you should always keep in mind. In addition to this, here are some other strategical approaches that can guide you on how to help your team avoid workplace anxiety. These are:  SET REALISTIC DEADLINES The deadlines of any project should be realistic knowing the team's strengths & weaknesses and the difficulty level of the work assigned. Setting realistic deadlines can reduce the stress and give your team time to take breaks and resume work with a fresh mind. A rational deadline not only helps in finishing the project even before the deadline but also boosts the morale of the entire team.

 FOLLOW RULE OF 3 Introduce your team to the ‘3 Rule of Anxiety’, that is Sight, Sound and Touch. If any employee is facing any sort of anxiety tell them to do these 3 things: 1.

Sight: While feeling anxious, take a pause and look around and focus on the objects that are in your surrounding. Pay attention to any three objects and observe them carefully such as the pattern, colour, and shape of the object.

2.

Sound: The next step is to listen to the sounds around you. Identify the sound and focus on its pitch.

3.

Touch: The last thing of the 3 Rule is to allow your body to move, it can be tapping of fingers, wobbling your toes, or simply just moving your head from left to right slowly.

These activities help in reducing anxiety by engaging the senses in other activities. It shifts your focus for some time. It is a very effective exercise that gives instant relief from anxiety.  APPRECIATE YOUR EMPLOYEES If you are empathetic and compassionate and treat your team members with empathy, then the team will always stay motivated, thereby creating less scope for workplace anxiety.

If employees feel that they are important to the company, it reflects in their work and productivity.  ENGAGE IN FUN TEAM ACTIVITIES Fun activities are a great way to reduce the stress and workload of the employees. Team activities like Puzzle Solving, Office Trivia, and Potluck can help co-workers bond with each other. Team activities also give a break from the monotonous routine and help reduce stress and work anxiety.  CREATE AWARENESS ABOUT ANXIETY Lots of people are still unaware of the anxiety; there are cases when a person is suffering from workplace anxiety and is still unaware of the situation. Educating your employees and creating awareness among them, can help employees suffering from anxiety. You can also conduct mental health screening events, leverage social media and encourage kind language to help raise the collective consciousness about anxiety.

A business grows because of the hard work and dedication of its employees therefore an organization must ensure a healthy and anxiety-free workplace environment for its employees. If employees are stress-free and mentally fit, their productivity increases, resulting in the holistic and rapid growth of the company.

EMPL YEES RETENTION Strategies For Your Business Growth

E

mployee retention refers to a company’s ability to retain its existing employees and prevent them from leaving the organisation. Employee retention results in increased productivity and is also cost-efficient. Although it is important to recruit new talents in the company that bring a fresh perspective, it is equally important to retain your key employees.

Undoubtedly, hiring is an exhausting and time-consuming process. And after the employee is hired, it takes a lot of effort and time to embed the required skills in the employee’s mind to facilitate the growth of the company. Therefore, companies consider retaining the existing employees as the best option. Since the existing employees know the process of work, they can work more effectively and produce better results.

42 | The Global Hues | Vol. 2

| Issue 6 | June 2022

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO RETAIN EMPLOYEES?



A company with high employee turnover has to invest a lot in the recruitment process. Constant employee turnover does not give the adequate return on the investment required by the company.

leader to invest more time with the team

Employers consider retaining their skilled and talented employees by providing them with a healthy work environment. Here are some notable benefits of employee retention:  SAVES COST AND EFFORTS Recruiting the employees is a backbreaking process. It is highly difficult to find the top talent that fulfils the requirement of the job profile. After recruiting a candidate, training is a must. So, it is easier to retain your existing employees who know how the organisation works.

Another challenge is that if a new candidate leaves the company early, all the time and cost that is invested in the whole process goes into vain.  INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY Employee retention is directly linked to the productivity of an organisation. This means that a new employee may take some time to speed up the work process while old employees can do the same task in lesser time and more effectively.

Companies with higher retention rates are likely to increase their productivity in comparison to those who have high employee turnover.  EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION Employees stay in an organisation only when they are satisfied with the salaries & compensation, work environment, growth opportunities, and the culture of the company. If any of these aspects are missing, employees start looking for a job change. If a company is able to retain its employees, it depicts the interactive work culture of the company.

Satisfied employees encourage other team members to work enthusiastically thereby resulting in profitability.

STRONGER WORKFORCE

Retention of employees enables the and improve the performance of existing employees and make them even better.

Existing employees are able to handle difficult situations smoothly and take on extra responsibilities. They are also capable of mentoring new employees whenever needed.

STRATEGIC APPROACH TO RETAIN YOUR EMPLOYEES Retaining employees is as necessary as achieving the goals of the company. It is a team that helps in achieving those goals. It is always easier to work with a team of old employees that are experienced and have handled a similar situation earlier. You can follow these strategies to retain your employees: 

ENGAGE EMPLOYEES FROM THE



PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMPENSATION The majority of employees leave the company because they are not satisfied with the financial aspects. Low pay packages and delay in promotion results in an increased rate of employee turnover.

Reward them for their efforts and contribution to the company’s growth. If an employee gets a timely promotion and due appreciation, they feel their value in the company. It also motivates them to work with more focus and dedication.  ENGAGE IN FUN ACTIVITIES Reducing the stress of employees by arranging some fun activities in the workplace can help a lot. The employees love to associate with a place that has a healthy work environment. Fun activities help in team-building and give employees' the chance to strengthen their bonds. Fun activities reduce the employees workload & stress and boost their mood which effectively increases their work performance.

BEGINNING Start from the beginning, make such an impression on your employees that they feel that they are provided with better opportunities to grow. At the time of the onboarding process, make sure there is a proper induction of an employee. This process helps the new employee to get comfortable within the team and reach out to you if they have some sort of difficulty. Include each employee in the decision making meetings as it gives them a



TAKE FEEDBACK AND LISTEN TO THEM Maintain good communication with the employees. Ask the employees if there is anything that needs to be changed, or if they want to give any suggestions, ideas or any other feedback. Communication connects employees across different levels. It becomes easier for the employees to raise their concerns, queries and suggestions if there is no communication gap.

sense of inclusion in the company.

SUMMING UP 

WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Everyone needs some time for themselves, a good work-life balance can give employees the chance to take out time for themselves. Flexible work timings are beneficial in most companies, as they give employees the choice to work while maintaining their personal life.

Employees are a crucial aspect of any organisation. If your company is able to retain its key employees then the productivity of the company increases significantly. Employee retention is a must for the company as it reduces the attrition rate of the company and also the cost that is invested in it.

You can also adopt remote and hybrid working models occasionally. These few changes can help you a lot in retaining employees.
