According to Inmaculada García, director of AENOR in Castile-Leon, "by obtaining the EFQM 400+ European Seal of Excellence as well as the 300+, the San Juan de Dios Hospital in Burgos has taken a step further in its commitment to quality and continuous improvement.

The EFQM Excellence Model is applied by organisations as the basis for their management system with a view to achieving sustainable excellence. San Juan de Dios Hospital in Burgos has achieved its objectives. There are nine fundamental concepts of Excellence that the EFQM Excellence Model takes into account when awarding Seals of Excellence. These nine concepts are divided into two separate sections: firstly, what the organisation does and how it does it and secondly, the results obtained by the organisation in regard to its interest groups and its compliance with its strategic plan.
With the delivery of the EFQM 400+ Seal of Excellence to the San Juan de Dios Hospital in Burgos, AENOR and Club Excelencia recognise the centre's prestige and experience and the quality of the patient care provided to chronic, palliative and multipathology patients. The audit analysed the hospitalisation procedures required to deal with patients with complex needs, and the results revealed excellent scores in patient health and satisfaction indicators over the last four years. This stamp also recognises the professionalism of the hospital employees and collaborators, the work of a multidisciplinary team of healthcare workers and other professionals, as well as the efficiency, clinical safety and quality of the entire healthcare process. The EFQM seal of excellence is only awarded to organisations that comply with the highest standards in excellence.
With this Seal of Excellence, San Juan de Dios Hospital in Burgos confirms that it continues to operate in accordance with the criteria of excellence.
