AQUAS - Providing Support for Financially Underprivileged Athletic ScholarsJohn W. Adams
AQUAS is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to identify, sponsor and mentor underprivileged high school scholar-athletes to secure athletic and/or academic scholarships so they can achieve a college education. With the help of private donors, AQUAS, in partnership with College Promoters USA, funds a professional video and marketing effort to showcase our candidate’s athletic capability. The video and an academic/athletic resume are distributed to college coaches throughout the nation. In addition, AQUAS volunteers follow up by phone with the coaches and counselors. AQUAS provides counseling for the students in responding to various college inquiries/offers and in the selection of a good match for them. Since its inception in 2009, AQUAS has helped 30 students receive more than $5,000,000 in scholarship funding – all for just $2,500 per student. That’s right, a donation of just $2,500 per student enables AQUAS to successfully promote an underprivileged athletic student and help them secure scholarships so they can achieve a college education – one they more than likely would not otherwise achieve. 100% of our donations are used directly towards assisting in the scholarship process as AQUAS is run and managed entirely by volunteers.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Abstract
Hospitals are an important component of the health care system and are central
to the process of reform, and as institutions, they have received remarkably
attention from government and stakeholders. The health sector of any country
occupies a very crucial position in its well-being. Today, every organization in
the corporate sector is trying to cope with the changing demands of time,
management, work practices and employee behavior. In such a competitive and
demanding scenario, it becomes quite essential for the hospitals and health
institutes to take into account the recognized methods and ways to keep their
values and performance aligned, to evaluate employee satisfaction with their
jobs, to develop a positive and conducive organizational culture, to inculcate
healthy emotions and attitudes in the workforce and most of all to lead the
organization in a direction determined by its well-thought of goals and
objectives.
This report is an endeavor to get an insight into the mission, visions, values,
guiding principles, structure, purpose, HR practices, Policies, organizational
culture and management functions of AKUH. This analysis helped us identify
the ideal practices being followed and which should be modeled by others while
it also helped us identify the weaknesses of the system, which might become
detrimental to the well-being of the organization.

lasting improvement in the lives of the poor in ways that lead to self-reliance
rather than dependence. To this end, the agencies encourage the communities
themselves to identify and plan for their needs, whether it is a community health
Centre or a national program for teacher training. AKDN agencies conduct their
programs irrespective of caste, creed or gender. When appropriate, the agencies
take an integrated approach, simultaneous addressing a broad spectrum of

departments. The organizational arrangement aims at a highly sustainable
structure through minimal external coordination and management. Each
participating agency nominates a ‘driver’ as a central contact person; s/he has
overall responsibility for implementing the workplace policy and
organizing/coordinating the wellness activities and trainings. In addition, trained
Wellness Champions at each company/agency actively promote wellness
activities. A program implementation committee is responsible for identifying
the program’s strategic direction and defining the activities appropriate for the
agency/company by using a standardized self-assessment and planning tool and
making sure that the program stays focused and achieves the expected results.
Each agency/company participates as a member in the National Facilitation
Team (NFT) which forms the working group in each country, also called a
‘chapter’. The NFT assists the individual agencies/companies to prepare
chapter and country-level management guidelines for implementing and
adapting the policy to accommodate the legal requirements and social-cultural
context of the country.

a. Planning
The Planning and Development of Campuses (P&DC) is setup to ensure timely
and effective implementation of Aga Khan University's Projects for Pakistan as
well as for certain campuses abroad. This includes planning and design process
for the project, development and implementation of land acquisition strategies,
developing tendering and construction strategies for the projects, preparing the
project execution plan and schedules for all aspects of the projects.
This entity is led by the Director General, Planning and Development of
Campuses (South and Central Asia) and is divided into three sections i.e.
Design, Construction and Engineering & Maintenance.
Over the past few years with the expansions and the growing needs of the
University, especially construction of new projects on Stadium Road,
acquisition of four Secondary Hospitals, major outreach programs across
Pakistan including phlebotomy centers etc. and respond to requests for services
from institutions abroad, the scope of services for P&DC has increased
tremendously. Additionally, management needs to focus on developing people
to ensure both technical skills and transfer to and leadership development of
succession candidates.
A reviewing analysis of AKU shows that the Quality Improvement and Patient
Safety Program (QIPSP) of Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH) describes a
planned, systematic and organization wide approach of AKUH towards quality
improvement and patient safety activities.
The purpose of AKUH’s Quality Improvement and Patient Safety Program is
to:
Develop greater leadership support for an organization wide Quality
Improvement and Patient Safety program
Train and involve more staff
Set clear priorities for what to monitor
Make improvements based on comparison to other Organizations,
nationally and internationally
AKU’s vision is the guiding principle throughout. It states that “AKUH
will be recognized as one of the best health care institutions in Pakistan
and the developing world. This will be achieved through

c. Leading
Over the course of the past 26 years, Aga Khan University has not only
flourished but has also become a valued and trusted partner of governments,
international agencies and other universities who share our strong belief in the
potential of human capital, ingenuity and enterprise to build communities and
improve lives.
At every level of our administration and faculty, we are deeply committed to the
development of human potential through the discovery and dissemination of
knowledge. Each day, we seek to embolden people of the developing world to
guide their own destinies and to contribute to the global community.
AKU was established to develop the leaders of tomorrow. Year after year, AKU
continue to draw upon various cultures to teach critical thinking, problem-
solving and decision-making. Ultimately, it is the powerful force of pluralism
that promotes intellectual openness, tolerance and increased understanding
between people of different societies.
Over the years we have established a growing reputation for our problem-based
research and for the quality and innovation of our programs. But perhaps most
importantly, we continue to achieve our goal of being an agent of change in the
developing world
d. Controlling
The controlling system ensures that the progress of the programs is carefully
followed-up and that outputs and achievements of the program are measured
over time. Monitoring and Evaluation is based on a coherent process, largely
implemented by the Wellness Drivers at each of the participating individual that
documents the progress and impact of the program. There are several times of
controls implemented in AKU including record keeping infection control etc.
Control of records
Environmental records can include, among others,
a) Complaint records,
b) Training records,
c) Process monitoring records,
d) Inspection, maintenance and calibration records,
e) Pertinent contractor and supplier records,
f) Incident reports,
21. Aga Khan University Hospital
21
g) Records of tests for emergency preparedness,
h) Audit results,
i) Management review results,
j) External communications decision,
k) Records of applicable legal requirements,
l) Records of significant environmental aspects,
m) Records of environmental meetings,
n) Environmental performance information,
o) Legal compliance records, and
p) Communications with interested parties.
Proper account should be taken of confidential information.
Infection Control
Purpose of Infection Control
The Infection Control Manual is developed to increase awareness among all
health care workers regarding the prevention and control of nosocomial
infections and to increase compliance with safety measures, particularly
Universal Precautions. The safety of the patients and employees lies in the
understanding and conscientious application of these basic principles, especially
for those patients with infections or diminished resistance to infection. It is well
recognized that nosocomial infections are preventable. Nosocomial infections
not only prolong the hospital stay and increase the cost of hospitalization; they
also result in increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore it is the
responsibility of all health care workers to practice preventive measures. An
effective infection control program requires support from higher management
and active participation from all patient care team members and support
services. The Infection Control Manual constitutes the policies, protocols,
guidelines and infection control procedures implemented and monitored for safe
practice at Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH). Several documents are
referred to during the preparation of this manual, including the
recommendations of the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Policies written in
this manual have been approved by the Joint Staff Committee of AKUH.
22. Aga Khan University Hospital

Philosophy of Infection Control
The aim of the Infection Control Team is to limit the acquisition and spread of
pathogenic micro-organisms by using scientifically based knowledge, thorough
planning, surveillance, education and research as a part of an organizational
policy of providing the best possible and cost efficient care to our patients. We
believe that the Infection Control Committee has a responsibility to create a safe
environment for all patients, care givers and visitors. We believe that the
Infection Control Committee has a responsibility for reinforcing the Infection
Control Policy and Procedures in order to prevent the spread of infection and to
promote a healthy environment. We believe that the Infection Control
Committee has a responsibility for establishing a practical system of
identifying, reporting, evaluating and maintaining records of infection among
patients and employees. Infection Control Committee also has the responsibility
for establishing a practical system of ongoing-data collection, the analysis of
that data and the follow-up action. We believe that continuing education is
essential for the professional growth, development and orientation of all new
employees as to the importance of infection control. We believe that the
Infection Control orientation consists of the following:
1. Personal hygiene
2. Chain of infection, preventive measures
3. Isolation categories and patient care
4. Safe management of sharps, linen and hospital waste
5. Universal blood and body fluid precautions
6. Management of exposure to blood and body fluid and needle stick injuries
7. Employees responsibility in the Infection Control Program
We believe that the Infection Control Committee must support and contribute to
the philosophy, goal, objectives and policies of the organization. We believe
that infection is preventable in hospital settings by implementing and
reinforcing preventive measures. We believe that it is the ethical and legal
responsibility of every care giver to protect their patients, colleagues and
themselves from acquiring nosocomial infection by practicing safe patient care
practice

The strategic plan of AKUH
In keeping true to our Mission and Vision, the strategic plan 2010-2023 has the
following three thrusts:
1.Developan"Integrated"HealthcareSystem
2.EstablishCentersofExcellence
3.EnhanceCapacity
a. Develop an "Integrated" Healthcare System
AKUH aims to become an integrated health system which provides primary,
secondary and tertiary care, where Stadium Road, Karachi is the hub, around which
the peripheral services are as shown:
24. Aga Khan University Hospital
24
AKUH has the ability and the capacity to provide care that has a noticeable
impact on the population it serves. An integrated health system addresses the
issue of decongestion but also connects the various components of health care
into a comprehensive and meaningful network. In essence, this will develop a
strong referral network between primary, secondary, tertiary and possibly
quaternary care (AKUH) sites, thereby assuring seamless transition of patients
during course of treatment. There is an opportunity to raise the levels of care at
the various off site locations. The ultimate goal would be to have tertiary level
set ups (sub-hubs) in all the provincial capitals of the country. There will be
cross referrals between the various sites. This will decongest AKUH main
campus by managing primary, secondary and limited tertiary level cases at off
campus sites and enable AKUH Stadium road to focus on a more complex case
mix. There are plans to have Lahore and Gilgit set up tertiary and secondary
levels of care respectively with integration with the Karachi campus.
It is proposed that offsite laboratory operations will expand phlebotomy stations
throughout the country as well as their scope in the form of a "semi-full" service
facility. Similarly the concept and scope of Integrated Medical Services (IMS),
providing primary, secondary and diagnostic facilities, are envisioned. Clifton
Medical Service (CMS) expansion is being considered to encompass day care
services (Endoscopy, dialysis), day surgery and expanded diagnostics.
The secondary hospitals located in Kharadar and Garden will continue to focus
on mother and child services. Karimabad and Hyderabad centers will be
developed into general hospitals with limited tertiary capacity in term of day
services.
Linkages with hospitals such as FMIC, Afghanistan and the AKUH, Nairobi
health network will also increase in importance and will further evolve the AKU
network from a regional to a continental integrated healthcare services network.
Some of these sites can be set-up to offer subsidized/low cost care, without
compromise in quality. This will serve our mission of accessibility.
b. Establish Centers of Excellence (CoE)
AKU has a well established reputation globally. The vision is to further build on
our mission of best practices, innovation, patient centeredness,
comprehensiveness, infrastructure, quality, governance, research, education and
technology by introducing the concept of CoEs.
25. Aga Khan University Hospital
25
CoEs will accomplish the above by bringing the needed focus on the
"processes" to improve and advance existing and new practices, to encompass
and develop new knowledge, and to improve on current processes. CoEs will
draw on not just the assets of AKU but also AKDN, AKHS and AKF.
The following centers for excellence for health sciences have been identified
and somewhat prioritized. These have been chosen from previous areas of focus
based on Burden of Disease, HSC deliberations and our strengths.
Maternal and Child Health/Human Development
Diagnostics
Oncology
Cardiac Diseases
Critical care and Emergency Medicine (incl. Trauma)
Neurosciences
Renal and Digestive Diseases
Population and Community Medicine
c. Enhance Capacity
As volumes grow and new programs are introduced, the rising average daily
census continues to apply pressure on available inpatient beds, necessitating the
need for new beds. Over the years, growth of some services has been only
possible by sacrificing inpatient bed space. The expansion of the Emergency
room has also increased the demand for inpatient beds. With the level of acuity
of patients on the increase, the need for more critical care beds has arisen. While
ACB2, arriving in 2012, is critical in releasing 83 inpatient beds and associated
spaces, there are several areas of the hospital that are now constrained.
Many services exist on campus that have the potential of being relocated to off
campus locations in a hub and spoke model, such as, Day care surgery,
Dentistry, Psychiatry, Dermatology, Dialysis, Community health services,
elective Endoscopy and Day care chemotherapy. Some of these can be mutually
exclusive while others may have benefit in being duplicated both on and off
campus. Taking these entities off campus would free up significant inpatient
and other hospital areas which can then be pursued for expansion of programs,
besides improving access and reaching out to the community.
It is expected that in 15 years, the integrated hospital will contain 800 - 1600
beds, nationally, on and off campus. Secondary Hospitals in the Outreach
Program will also be expanded in the period 2014 - 2025 to convert two of the
four locations into full general hospitals. This will allow the main campus to
26. Aga Khan University Hospital
26
decongest while also increasing access and service offering. The arrival of
Electronic Health Records is expected to greatly facilitate this integration.
Additionally, a growing home health care program will also cater to specialized
needs off-site.

Achievements
Joint Commission International Accreditation (JCIA)
In September 2006, Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH), Karachi became
the first Hospital in Pakistan and one of the first few University Teaching
Hospitals in the world to be awarded the prestigious JCIA for achieving and
maintaining international quality standards in health care.
In August 2009, the Hospital went through its first triennial re-accreditation
survey. A team of surveyors from the Joint Commission visited the hospital to
reevaluate the compliance of all accredited standards. The hospital received
excellent reviews and continued to provide the highest level of patient care and
was re-accredited for another 3 years.
JCIA is a division of the American-based Joint Commission on Accreditation of
Healthcare Organization (JCAHO). JCIA was created in 1998 to develop
standards applicable to the international community. These standards are
organized around the important functions common to all healthcare
organizations. The standards are grouped by those functions related to providing
patient care and those related to providing a safe, effective and well-managed
organization. The survey process gathers standards compliance information
throughout the organization, and the accreditation decision is based on the
overall level of compliance found throughout the organization

ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System (QMS) Certification
In June 2000, AKUH became the first University Teaching Hospital in Pakistan
and one of the first few University Teaching Hospitals in the world to receive
ISO 9001: 2000 certification for Quality Management System for Patient Care
and Support Services. Since then, the Hospital has successfully demonstrated its
focus on quality improvement in subsequent recertification audits and continued
to hold the certification.
In June 2009, the Hospital successfully completed its recertification for the new
revised version of ISO 9001:2008. This recertification speaks of our
commitment to continuous quality improvement (CQI) initiatives, leading to the
provision of high quality and safe care for our valuable patients.
ISO 22000:2005 Quality Management System (QMS) Certification
AKUH's Nutrition and Food Services Department (NFSD) successfully
accomplished a new milestone in its quality initiatives by achieving ISO
22000:2005 certification in May 2009. AKU's NFSD is the first hospital based
food production and service in Pakistan to be certified on these specialized food
safety standards.
This standard is exclusive to Food and Beverage Industry and includes
requirements and practices that involve interactive communication, prerequisite
programs and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) principles.
Recommendations
AKU should expand the hospital to 250 beds, which will enable delivery of care
to adults and children, including maternal care, obstetrics and neonatology,
cardiac and neurosurgery and other services to be defined as the hospital grows.
This will be a phased approach, with the initial 52 beds of women’s obstetrics
and gynecological wing added to current services by 2016. This will enable the
hospital to grow beyond its initial focus on pediatrics, making possible the
delivery of medical care to male and female adults and children, including
maternal care, obstetrics, neonatology, oncology and other general and
specialized services. FMIC is also working toward establishing a
comprehensive medical complex in Kabul which will serve not only the Afghan
population but Central Asia as well as a medical Centre of excellence.

One of the most significant transformations taking place at the University is the
planned establishment of Aga Khan University Faculties of Arts and Sciences
(AKU-FAS) for Pakistan and East Africa - a major step towards building a
comprehensive university.
AKU should establish a residential campus in Karachi that wills double the
current student body while tripling its physical facilities. In Tanzania, the
Arusha campus will be the University's first permanent campus in East Africa,
serving students from across the region.
The investment in physical facilities will be matched by programs intended to
have far-reaching impact.
Quality human resource is one of the greatest challenges to development in
Pakistan and East Africa. AKU will play a pivotal role in developing leaders
who are well-equipped to drive the social and economic revitalization of both
these regions
