Dénia Hospital receives 4 TOP20 awards

November 29 from 2022 - 17: 07

El Hospital de Dénia has received today in Madrid 4 TOP 20 awards in the categories of: Global Hospital Management, Nervous System, Respiratory and Kidney and Urinary Tracts.

The event was attended by the Managing Director of the Dénia Health Department, Dr. Javier Palau; accompanied by the Assistance Director, Pedro Clemente; the Director of Care and Services, Natalia Casado; and the Head of the Neurology Service, Alexandre García Escrivà.

The manager of the Department of Health of Dénia -DSD- has underlined the importance of the awards, "since they recognize the effort of the professionals, at the same time that they compare us with other centers and similar management contexts; which provides a very objective dimension of the quality of the service that we are providing in the Marina Alta".

The Top 20 are based on the comparison of results between more than 200 Spanish health centers, which voluntarily submit to the evaluation of some thirty indicators and distinguish those hospitals with the best operation and the highest quality and care efficiency in aspects such as: management Efficient length of hospital stay and outpatient surgery, compared with the risk-adjusted measure of readmissions, complications, and mortality.

In this sense, the Director of Assistance of the DSD, Dr. Pedro Clemente, has underlined the "importance of being able to compare ourselves with two hundred Spanish health centers with similar characteristics and thus establish continuous improvement mechanisms to continue working on the culture of quality that we have implanted”.

    Because they don't ask the clients (sick) if they agree with "those" awards.....it seems to me that the users disagreed a lot......

    A shame, they put a double J catheter in me and the doctor did not even come out to inform my husband or me and I have already undergone 23 different operations.
    He came from Valencia (that's all they told me), he operated on me and left quickly and running.
    On top of that, I had to wait 8 months and in an operation that said "preferred", the excuse they told me "in Urology now we only have two doctors, we have a long waiting list, sorry for the inconvenience".
    I would give them an award, but in terrible care and poor management.

    This prize thing is very curious, what about the waiting lists? That prevent a prompt diagnosis with its corresponding treatment. This is what medical care, diagnosis and treatment is based on. If you have to wait months to access the appointment and then the tests, the only thing you achieve is aggravate the disease that the patient may have. Does that deserve awards?

    I don't know what they score to donate the premit, because it is a shame with these malalts and I know that it is not because of the health personnel, but because of a lack of personnel.
    To have a COLONESCOPY, I've been waiting since March and how far will go if there is a big problem, they have the same thing, because they won't have any problems

    The waiting time for anything from an appointment to an intervention have never recovered since Covid. Previously when you signed for an intervention you knew you would be called within the month. Now it appears that a year or more are routine and both myself and a friend have had to get our G/ps inviolved to be even returned to a list which inadvertently lost us both from different departments of the hospital. Treatment when you finally get it is of the highest standard. So thank you but waiting is painful.
