Why is online clinical governance training essential?
Clinical governance is a system through which healthcare organisations are accountable for continuously improving the quality of their services and safeguarding high standards of care by creating an environment in which excellence in clinical care will flourish.
The governance of healthcare organisations, or clinical governance, is being seen as a significant factor in ensuring sound healthcare delivery. At its barest, governance of healthcare organisations is about implementing practices aimed at improving the standards of healthcare and clinical practice.
Health and social care organisations now have a duty to the communities they serve for maintaining the quality and safety of care. Whatever structures, systems and processes an organisation puts in place, it must be able to show evidence that standards are upheld.
