Book Description

Technological advancement and changes in the delivery of health care services have led to the need for guidelines to assist in planning and implementing institutional programs and services. The guidelines provide a comprehensive outline of requirements for services in health institutions. Where a service already exists, the guidelines will help to identify problems related to administration, personnel, equipment and facilities, to determine necessary remedial action, and to set priorities for corrective measures on the basis of clinical need, funding and the degree to which the service is deficient.
