Han River Sacred Heart Hospital (Hospital Director Heo Jun) of Hallym University won the Excellence Award in the Large Hospital category at the '2025 QI Competition' hosted by the Seoul Metropolitan Hospital Association.
The award ceremony was held at the Seoul Garden Hotel on the 21st of last month at the 4th SP Proud Hospital Award Ceremony and the 22nd Academic Seminar'. Hallym University Han River Sacred Heart Hospital received the award under the theme of 「Improving satisfaction with weekend ward life through recreation exercise programs in burn rehabilitation wards」.
The Seoul Metropolitan Hospital Association holds a QI competition every year to improve the quality of medical services, establish a safe medical environment, and improve the work process of each medical institution, and selects and awards excellent activity cases.
At this competition, Hallym University Han Kang Sungsim Hospital was evaluated for greatly increasing the satisfaction of patients in the burn rehabilitation ward based on the recreation exercise program.
Hallym University Han Kang Sungsim Hospital is the only university hospital designated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and due to the nature of the burn hospital, there are many severely burned patients who have to endure difficult surgeries and treatment processes. In particular, patients with severe burns often need long-term treatment to be hospitalized, and they can suffer not only physical pain but also mental pain such as post-traumatic stress disorder, which requires more careful care.
Accordingly, the Ministry of Nursing planned the Recreation Exercise Program in the Burn Rehabilitation Ward to further improve the quality of nursing based on active communication with patients.
First, we investigated the current status of weekend ward life and demand for activity programs for inpatients in the burn rehabilitation ward. Based on the results of the survey, the exercise program was developed in collaboration with rehabilitation medicine and physical therapy room medical staff.
Since 2024, it has been conducting recreational exercise programs such as ▲ stretching for burn rehabilitation ▲ moving beans for water burn rehabilitation ▲ stacking cups and video rehabilitation exercise solutions through scabbing.
As a result, patients' satisfaction with weekend ward life improved overall. According to the satisfaction survey of burn patients in rehabilitation wards conducted after the program was implemented, the boredom of hospitalization on weekends, which was 4.44 out of 5, was 1.26, the difficulty of time management, which was 3.44 points, was 1.69, and the feeling of treatment disconnection, which was 3.22 points, was more than halved to 1.29. In addition, satisfaction with the weekend ward life increased from 4.28 points to 4.93.
Heo Jun, the head of the hospital, said, `The medical staff of Hanlim University Kang Sungsim Hospital are trying to communicate better with all patients who are coping with difficult and painful burns"We will always put patients first and provide the best medical services in the future."
Meanwhile, the nursing department of Hallym University Han Kang Sungsim Hospital has continuously strengthened interactions with patients to closely identify their health problems and provide necessary information or emotional support. As a result, it was selected as the number one nationwide in the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service's '4th Patient Experience Assessment in 2023'. Patient experience evaluation is a survey that evaluates whether hospitals are realizing patient-centered medical care based on 'communication with patients'.
