The Patient's Charter
Protecting patient rights and ensuring quality healthcare for all
The Ghana Health Service is for all people living in Ghana irrespective of age, sex, ethnic background and religion. The service requires collaboration between health workers, patients/clients and society. Thus the attainment of optimal health care is dependent on Team Work. Health facilities must therefore provide for and respect the rights and responsibilities of patients/clients, families, health workers and other health care providers. They must be sensitive to patient's socio-cultural and religious backgrounds, age, gender and other differences as well as the needs of patients with disabilities.
The Ghana Health Service expects health care institutions to adopt the patient's charter to ensure that service personnel as well as patients/clients and their families understand their rights and responsibilities.
This Charter is made to protect the Rights of the patient in the Ghana Health Service. It addresses:
Collaborative Care
Health facilities provide for and respect the rights and responsibilities of patients, families, and health workers.
Comprehensive Healthcare
Right to accessible, equitable and comprehensive healthcare of the highest quality.
Patient Autonomy
