Patient Rights-Final
Patient Rights outline basic rules between patients and medical caregivers as well as institutions to improve patient outcomes. They are based on the concept of human dignity and equality from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Patient Rights vary between countries and regions depending on cultural and social norms but generally include rights like access to treatment, privacy, non-discrimination, and taking part in treatment decisions. Both the U.S. and European perspectives on Patient Rights establish lists of rights and responsibilities in an effort to protect patients and support high quality healthcare.

Patient’s rights and responsibilities
This document outlines patients' rights and responsibilities in a hospital setting. It discusses the patient bill of rights, which provides guidance to protect patients by outlining the responsibilities of hospitals and staff toward patients. The objectives are to provide high quality care that respects patients' independence, dignity, and relationships while preserving their basic human rights. The policy states that all employees must abide by patients' rights and inform patients and families of their responsibilities. Patients are informed of their rights through posters and a patient handbook. Key rights discussed include the right to informed consent, privacy, dignity, participation in care decisions, complaint processes, and safety.
Patients' rights and responsibilities
“I solemnly pledge myself to consecrate my life to service of humanity.” This is the first sentence a doctor utters while taking an oath when s/he enters into the medical profession. They are considered as God by people despite knowing the fact that they are human, as the profession gives ‘hope’ to live to a patient and his family. But due to the increasing number of medico legal issues in the country, there is a serious concern about the doctor-patient relationship. To raise awareness among the patients about their rights and responsibilities as patients and to build up a strong, safe and healthy doctor patient relationship, the Dr. Anamika Ray Memorial Trust observes June 25 as Patients’ Rights Day under the “STOP MEDICAL TERRORISM” movement for better and transparent healthcare services in India.
The Trust, in consultation with a panel of medical professionals of national and international repute, drafted the Patients’ Rights in 10 points and the responsibilities in another 10 points. The Rights and Responsibilities of the patients available at http://smt.armt.in in many Indian languages. It's a two page document. The Trust requests everyone to support the cause by downloading the document in their preferred language, printing it out and distributing it among patients in any hospital in India. The Trust believes that this initiative may save hundreds of lives and will be a great contribution for better and more transparent healthcare services in India.
The rights mentioned in the draft include the right to get the best possible medical care without discrimination; right to prompt, life-saving treatment; right to take part in all decisions relating to one’s health care; right to privacy; right to know the identity and role of people involved in treatment; right to dignity and to have caregivers’ respect; right to appropriate assessment and management of pain; right to receive visitors; right to refuse treatment and to leave the medical centre; and right to get necessary information related to the line of treatment as well as all health records.
The responsibilities mentioned in the draft include the responsibility to refrain from misbehaving and misconduct towards any medical service providers; responsibility to refrain from physical assault of any healthcare personnel or damage to property; responsibility to be truthful; responsibility to provide complete and accurate medical history; responsibility to cooperate with the agreed line of treatment; responsibility to meet the financial obligations; responsibility to refrain from initiating, participating or supporting fraudulent and illegal health care practices; responsibility to report illegal or unethical behaviour; responsibility to get a post-mortem done and responsibility to discuss end of life decisions.
Senior Citizen And Inhome Care

In-home care offers more flexibility compared to hospitals or nursing homes. It can also be more cost-effective by avoiding costs for room and board. While technology has advanced to provide more hospital-level care at home, research shows it can be difficult to find high-quality in-home care services. When choosing a provider, it is important to find one with experienced registered nurses who are compassionate and committed to patient care standards.
