香港医院管理局自1991年12月接管了全港所有公立医院以来,一直致力推动公立医院的管理改革工作,改革的范围是多方面的。对外要计划发展医疗服务和改善服务素质,鼓吹社区参予医疗服务和决策,对内则设立新管理架构和系统,统一管理制度,加强员工培训,以及建立一套新的机构文化 Since the Hong Kong Hospital Authority took over all public hospitals in Hong Kong in December 1991, it has been working hard to promote the management reform of public hospitals. The scope of the reform is manifold. It is necessary to plan the development of medical services and improve the quality of services, advocate community participation in medical services and decision-making, set up new management structures and systems, integrate management systems, strengthen employee training, and establish a new institutional culture.
