The introduction of clinical governance has already had a major impact on health care in the UK. Its implementation is crucial in enabling the quality of health care to become the driving force for the development of health services. Clinical governance is the responsibility of managers and clinicians working at all levels. Therefore it is vital to have access to clearly written, reliable information on clinical governance and be equipped to deliver these complex and challenging roles in a fast-moving environment. This long awaited follow-up to Clinical Governance - Making it Happen considers the implications of clinical governance for a wide range of health care professionals including nurses, medical directors and chief executives. The contributors examine the role of the new government organisation NICE, the responsibilities of those working for NHS organisations and the benefits of patient involvement. Advancing Clinical Governance will enable health professionals to implement clinical governance effectively and with confidence. This book is recommended to clinicians and managers at all levels within trusts, those working in primary care, health care purchasers and academics.
