Patient Rights Training — Course Overview
This training focuses on patient rights and what they mean in practice for a healthcare facility. Complying with these rights helps protect the organization from justified claims, penalties, and sanctions imposed by the National Health Fund (NFZ) and/or the Patient Ombudsman (RPP). Responsibility also rests with staff members—everyday decisions and communication matter.
The course is delivered in an interactive, engaging format, so participants not only understand why patient rights are essential and what the legal foundations are, but also remember the real-life situations they may face.
This training is not a boring lecture—it can be an engaging, practical learning experience based on real examples. During the session, we also discuss when patients submit complaints (and to whom), and why it is worth building strong relationships with patients and their families.
Format: in-person training delivered at the client’s premises or another location anywhere in Poland.

Why choose this training?
- You can learn patient rights from the law or a website—but most people don’t deepen this knowledge on their own.
- This course shows how patient rights work in real-life situations through practical examples—rather than “dry” legal clauses written in legal language.
- A key factor in compliance and risk reduction is knowing when a patient (or family member) raises a concern—and what to do next.
- Negative perceptions of healthcare affect 39% of patients (Siemens Healthcare report, 2019), increasing the risk of complaints.
- Focusing on patient well-being through excellent service at every stage—from registration, through procedures, to the doctor’s office—significantly reduces the risk of complaints related to breaches of patient rights.
