THE SAN IGNACIO UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL IS CERTIFIED WITH THE 5Z SEAL FOR A HEALTHY COMPANY FROM THE INTERNATIONAL ORP FOUNDATION

The San Ignacio University Hospital has been recognized with the prestigious 5Z Excellence seal, the highest distinction awarded by the 5Z Culture initiative, which highlights the institutions’ commitment to promoting a healthy and transparent company culture. This accreditation reflects the hospital’s effort to integrate the principles of Vision Zero and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into its organizational and operational strategy.

The 5Z culture focuses on five fundamental pillars for the comprehensive development of companies and the well-being of people: safety, sustainability, health, uniqueness and sensitivity. By adopting this culture, San Ignacio University Hospital underlines its dedication to collaborative actions that promote good practices and sustainable growth.

The certification process involved a rigorous audit that evaluated the hospital’s compliance with the criteria of the 5Zeros model -Zero accidents, Zero illness, Zero waste, Zero inequality and Zero ignorance-. The audit inspected the effectiveness of the hospital’s management system and its ability to achieve 5Z culture objectives, recommending improvements in specific areas if necessary.

The San Ignacio University Hospital can now use the 5Z Excellence seal in its internal and external communications, which demonstrates its position as a leader in the health sector due to its commitment to safety, sustainability and comprehensive well-being. This recognition is not only a testament to the hospital’s commitment to its patients and employees, but also sets a standard for other institutions in the healthcare field.

The hospital’s management team has expressed its pride and satisfaction with this achievement, reaffirming its commitment to continue working towards a work and healthcare environment that prioritizes health and safety as fundamental axes of its management and service.
