Description: "Clinical governance has changed the approach for ensuring that patients receive the best possible health care. It recognizes the importance of teams, organizations and systems, rather than just individuals working in isolation. It provides a framework for tying together the different strands of quality - audit and feedback, clinical effectiveness, error reduction and risk management, evidence-based practice, patient involvement and lifelong learning."--BOOK JACKET.
