Abstract
Accordingly, the purpose of the actions taken by the state services in the field of health care is mainly to avoid the negative consequences of healthcare services. Despite advances in modern medicine, millions of people around the world die each year as a result of medical errors, and patient safety remains a relevant and topical issue. Various regulations, guidelines, laws, standards and guidelines, effects of evidence-based medicine and Best Practice provided to improve patient safety. Data about medical errors show that 50-70.2% damage can be reduced with a systemic and sophisticated approach to patient safety. Like the rest of the world, providing high-quality healthcare services is one of the most significant and problematic issues in the healthcare system of Georgia. Despite the competitive environment in the healthcare market, there are no fundamental shifts in terms of quality assurance. There are several difficulties with the management and quality control of healthcare facilities. Unfortunately working on quality assurance, management and improvement is not a priority; For avoiding undesirable consequences, preventive measures are not considered as an essential approach; The directive standards and quality indicators almost are not created and what exists are sufficient. Effective interrelationships have not been achieved between critical components of quality assurance, such as technical competence, accessibility, efficiency, safety, effectiveness, continuity, etc. The structural units of the quality management system in the healthcare facilities are mainly focused on making the medical documentation under the norms required by the legislation. Methods for monitoring, measuring, analyzing and evaluating of the quality management system have not been well organized. In case of discrepancies, Instead of defensive measures to prevent the recurrence of the same defect, the main forces are directed to correct the unit cases and achieve compliance with the established norms. Establishment of a quality control system for healthcare organizations, development and implementation of quality indicators, and considering for continuous improvement requires a specific and multifaceted approach.
