Abstract

Recent changes in the National Health Service in the UK have included a drive towards better quality health care through enhanced professional regulation, clinical governance and lifelong learning. It has been stated that the successful adoption of programmes of clinical governance is dependent on the right culture prevailing within the NHS. Progress and problems in the implementation of clinical governance to date are discussed.
