    Course details

    Hospitals and health institutions dedicated to the delivery of quality service are pivotal to a society’s health as well as its economy. It is a widely known fact that the state of a country’s general health is directly related to the performance of the economy. For this reason, performance in hospitals needs to be monitored closely due to the direct impact it has on Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the state of the economy Many hospitals and health institutions, especially in developing economies, have no structures in place to monitor and evaluate performance. Ideally effective governance structures (i.e. quality assurance and clear leadership processes with consistent management and cohesive policies designed to ensure that standards of care are maintained) must exist. The implementation of these procedures and policies in hospitals is referred to as clinical governance.
