The GRM of Apex Hospitals Pvt. Ltd. (AHPL) provides a standardized, inclusive system to receive, record, evaluate, address, and resolve grievances across all units. It ensures all voices are responded to respectfully and systematically.
Guiding principles include- Transparency, Fairness, Respect, and Accountability.
These principles govern all GRM operations as part of AHPL's ethical governance and social performance framework.
The mechanism applies across all AHPL facilities for internal stakeholders (employees, doctors, nurses, support staff, interns, trainees, contractual workers) and external stakeholders (patients, attendants, vendors, suppliers, contractors, visitors, community members).
Grievances covered include issues related to service delivery, workplace conditions, conduct, safety, welfare, contractual compliance, environmental and social impacts, and patient care.
