However, it has gathered momentum during the last few years with the advent of accreditation process enabled by NAAC, NABL, NABH, ISO. With several training programmes, the hospital of Mahatma Gandhi Medical College & Research Institute, SBV seems to be in the forefront towards quality implementation.

The quality of service means 100 percent and if there is going to be even a negligible lack, it costs the organization a large and also valuable human lives at times.

This memorandum of understanding between SBV and Product & Process Development Centre, Agra would pave a way in ensuring Quality in services offered at all the constituent units of SBV”.
