No matter where or when you provide care, clinical governance is an essential concept to grasp and implement. 

For more than a decade, care professionals in the Pacific have been developing and strengthening their clinical governance frameworks and knowledge. This has involved close collaboration with Australian institutes and colleges. In this webinar, Drs Silina Motofaga (Pacific Community, SPC) and Alipate Vakamocea (Fiji Program Support Platform, FPSP) will share the journey Pacific Island Countries and Territories have taken towards improving and implementing good clinical governance practices. They will cover engaging clinicians and key administrators on the pathway to success. If you are trying to change hearts and minds towards better clinical governance – no matter where or what country you are in – this webinar is for you.
