Management of Records in Health Institutions

Samuel Macharia Were

Abstract: Effective records management practice is a vital element of management of any health care service providing organisation. Despite the important role played by records management, there is evidence to suggest that many of the health care service organisations pay little attention to standardized management of records. This paper analyses the practice in different environments and suggests possible changes that would help make the program more effective and beneficial.
