Clinical governance

Clinical governance describes the structures, processes and culture needed to ensure that healthcare organisations – and all individuals within them – can assure the quality of the care they provide and are continuously seeking to improve it. The main components of clinical governance include: risk management, clinical audit, education training and CPD, evidence-based care, patient and carer involvement and staffing and management.
