- Abstract
This article explores a study on enhancing the quality of healthcare services in both urban and rural areas. It focuses on effective and efficient management strategies to foster a positive internal climate within hospital administrations. The study also seeks to discover what additional features and services can be incorporated into the health centre to enhance its profitability, employing the tools of Six Sigma. Through the identification of inefficiencies and the resolution of performance barriers within the hospital industry, a comprehensive report was meticulously crafted. It also resolves any areas of discontent to assist management in achieving greater efficiency. From the data, conclusions were derived and recommendations were presented to the hospital management's administrative team in order to rectify service deficiencies. Elaborate recommendations were also put forth to enhance the operational efficiency of the hospital industry.
