Founder's Message
Healthcare in India is evolving faster than ever, and with that comes a responsibility we can’t ignore — to make care safer, smarter, and truly centered around people. I started the Bharat Quality & Patient Safety Institute with a simple belief: India deserves healthcare systems that are world-class, consistent, and built on the values we’ve carried for generations.
Quality isn’t a document.
Safety isn’t a checklist.
Both are cultures we build - step by step, day by day.
Through this institute, my mission is to support hospitals, leaders, students, and clinicians across the country in creating care systems that are reliable, accountable, and future-ready. Whether it’s improving processes, strengthening patient safety, or empowering teams with knowledge, our focus stays rooted in one promise: do the right thing for every patient, every time.
I believe India has the talent, the heart, and the strength to lead globally in healthcare quality.
BQPSI is here to help make that future real.
