Clinical Governance: Pillars on Infrastructure, Equipment, Utilities including Sanitation and Hygiene
- Infrastructure, Equipment, Utilities/ Waste Management, Sanitation/Infection Control are essential for any quality care outcome to be achieved!
- Structures / Big Houses without Equipment and Qualified personnel are white elephants, not Hospitals.
- Lack of Equipment / Poor Staff training lowers morale / lead to Brain Drain and medical tourism
- Clinical Governance involves duty of clinical and non-clinical workers
- Policy makers must understand Clinical Governance for the right priority setting in Healthcare.
