With the aim of revamping hospital service as a pillar of our hospital reform movement, the Service Training Committee came into being in 2012. A questionnaire survey was conducted on the entire personnel and tenant suppliers (the entire personnel, tenants and contractors’ employees?). About 80% (705 people) of those queried replied. More than 90% of the respondents were of the view that an improvement in the manner of reception should enhance not only the prestige of the hospital, the evaluation its medical treatment and patients&rsauo; degree of satisfaction, but also hospital employees’ degree of satisfaction and their quality of life. On the other hand, some respondents said that there was much to be desired in the way hospital employees exchange greetings with their colleagues and in the manners or the language they use when they speak to patients. Most of the hospital staff seemed to understand the importance and meaning of service and hospitality very well. It was clear that the hospital employees were willing to join in our drive to improve the quality of service. They also understood the problems they should address to in earnest. We thought it was our task to make use of their positive attitude toward the quality improvement of service. What we have in view is to create a hospital culture that makes it seem natural to provide a high-quality service to visitors and patients. To this end, we will develop various activities and hold workshops.
