Clinical Governance, Quality and Safety in Saint John of God Hospital and Saint Joseph’s Centre

Clinical Governance is defined as "The framework 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."

This Committee meets at least six times per year; it sets key performance indicators for the services and monitors the programme of work to ensure satisfactory quality standards as well as reports from regulatory bodies that inspect both the Hospital and Saint Joseph’s Centre.
