What is clinical governance?
![Page 6: Clinical governance matters for non-clinical services...•Clinical governance matters, and is important for all organisations dealing with vulnerable people who depend on them to](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050719/5f7c29f8d1a30012ce662ea4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Clinical governance is a framework through which health organisations are accountable for quality of care, creating an environment in which excellence in will flourish.
Clinical governance enables health services to maintain consistently high levels of service delivery, minimise risks and errors, and share responsibility for fostering an environment of continuous quality improvement.
![Page 7: Clinical governance matters for non-clinical services...•Clinical governance matters, and is important for all organisations dealing with vulnerable people who depend on them to](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050719/5f7c29f8d1a30012ce662ea4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Clinical governancearticulates how mental health services adhere to best practice principles and national standards of practice, as well as making clear who holds what authority and accountability within the system.
Clinical governance strives prevent critical incidents and other adverse outcomes. Where incidents occur, it provides an approach for investigating and improving practice based on the findings.

Not just for clinical services
• Historically, it has been clinical health services that have had formal clinical governance approaches
• It is increasingly recognised that the principles and processes that underlie clinical governance form a valuable check on organizations dealing with vulnerable people
