The purpose of this paper is to describe the results of a dynamic water conservation program currently being implemented in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Responding to a growing water crises and the need to defer the development of future desalination plants, the Ministry of Water & Electricity (MOWE) initially retrofitted 3.2 million households over an 18 month period with aerators and toilet displacement devices. This experience enabled MOWE to expand the programs to high-efficiency showerheads and other conservation devices. MOWE faced significant and unique challenges in implementing the programs due to program needs and cultural structures. Customer follow-up surveys were conducted in the twelve cities and eight provinces targeted by the program. This is an ongoing program where the savings, the issues and customers will be continually surveyed and documented.

Source Of Information

The aim of this study was to know the most significant sources of information that university students throughout The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (King Abdul-Aziz University as a model) get on Saudi Arabia’s 2030 Vision. To achieve that, a questionnaire has been designed to cover several axes: traditional and new media and other information sources such as conferences, seminars and lectures. The research population represented is both male and female, a sample of 150 students randomly selected. The study shows that the main source of information students are gaining from regarding the 2030 vision is through social media, mainly Twitter. The study also found that still, students are getting information from traditional media, mainly TV. The study found that there is a positive conception that exists amongst students on the implementation of the 2030 Vision and its goals being directed equally to all segments of society, as well as the extent of it’s direct impact on the future of the kingdom. In addition, the study also found that the students are very positive towards the new economic plan and believe that oil will no longer be the main source of income for Saudi Arabia by 2030. While those ratios declined significantly when it came to the clarity on the Vision’s goals, it’s necessary that we begin working on clarifying the vision and its objectives even more to all sections of society. Finally, the study also showed that there is a strong correlation between the rate of follow-up students and relying on both traditional and new media to get their information on The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Saudi Vision 2030.

Patient and Family Rights (PFR) is a common chapter available in the Joint Commission International (JCI) Accreditation[i] (fifth edition) and Central Board for Accreditation of Healthcare Institutions (CBAHI) Standards for hospitals (second edition)[ii]. JCI Accreditation is a USA based international healthcare accrediting organization, whereas CBAHI is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia based national health care accrediting organization. However, both these standards are accredited by Ireland based International Society for Quality in Health Care (ISQua), which is the only accrediting organization who “accredit the accreditors' in the world. In Patient and Family Rights (PFR) chapter of JCI Accreditation for hospitals, there are nineteen (19) standards and seventy-seven (77) measurable elements (ME) whereas in CBAHI Accreditation there are thirty one (31) standards, ninety nine (99) sub-standards and fifty (50) evidence(s) of compliance (EC). The scoring mechanism is totally different in both these accrediting organizations. The researcher has identified thirty two (32) common parameters from JCI Accreditation and CBAHI standards, intent statement, measurable elements, sub-standard and evidence of compliance. On the basis of these identified common parameters, the researcher has compared the Patient and Family Rights chapter in JCI Accreditation and CBAHI Standards. Methods: This is a comparison study (normative comparison) in which the researcher has critically analyzed and compared the Patient and Family Rights (PFR) standards of JCI (Joint Commission International) Accreditation of USA (United States of America) and CBAHI (Central Board for Accreditation of Healthcare Institutions) of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Data Collection: Primary data are collected from the JCI Accreditation Standards for hospitals, fifth edition, 2013 and CBAHI Standards for hospitals of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, second edition, 2011. Secondary data are collected from relevant published journals, articles, research papers, academic literature and web portals. Objectives of the Study: The aim of this study is to analyze critically Patient and Family Rights (PFR) Standards in JCI Accreditation and CBAHI Standards to point out the best in among both these standards. Conclusion: This critical analysis of Patient and Family Rights (PFR) Standards in JCI Accreditation and CBAHI Standards for hospitals clearly show that the PFR Standards in CBAHI Standards are very comprehensive than the JCI Accreditation standards.
