Implementation of the risks management system in the JSC "National Research Center for Maternal and Child Health"
In the modern hospital settings patients experience numerous medical interventions and procedures where each one is a particular risk for a patient. The only way to minimize hospital risks is to develop a system for quality assurance and patient safety. We have introduced the Program for Infection Prevention and Control (Program) in the JSC “National Research Center for Maternal and Child Health” (NRCMCH), �stana. The results of the Program are tracked through the information management systems, which is the assessment of risks, indicators and trends for nosocomial infections. During the implementation of the Program 11 hospital risks were identified. Risks management system helps us to prioritize current problems so we could address them effectively. Such evidence-based framework is an effective tool to prevent and control for nosocomial infections and other dangers in the modern hospital settings.
