The study concluded that there was no fundamental relationship between total quality management and continuous improvement of performance, which was formulated in the form of null, and the alternative hypothesis was accepted. A direct statistically significant relationship was found between the application of total quality management and continuous improvement of performance. The results of the linear correlation showed the presence of a statistically significant correlation relationship between the application of total quality management and continuous improvement of performance. The results of the linear correlation showed the presence of a statistically significant correlation between total quality management on achieving economic and environmental returns, as it found a significant direct effect between total quality management and achieving economic and environmental returns. The study recommended evaluating patients’ experience with hospital health services in terms of quality and efficiency. The effectiveness of the control methods applied by the facility to protect against any negative effects related to the activities, and the comprehensive quality management’s formation and activation of committees specialized in quality in proportion to the size of the hospital, and I also achieved the design of questionnaires on a regular basis in hospitals to encourage customers (patients) to present their ideas and opinions from time to time, The necessity of periodic review to ensure that hospitals are using resources effectively to achieve economic returns and preserve the environment. | ||
