The chairman of the university’s clinic, Priit Eelmäe, stated that "The establishment of a patient council in a hospital is novel in Estonia, but it is supported by the practice of the rest of the world…Research has confirmed that the Patient Advisory Council, for example, helps improve work processes, the physical hospital environment, the content of patient information and instruction, and also increases patient satisfaction,".
