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
Respect for patient as an individual with right of choice in healthcare decisions.
Non-Discrimination
Protection from discrimination based on culture, ethnicity, language, religion, gender, age or disability.
THE PATIENT'S RIGHTS
The patient has the right to quality basic health care irrespective of his/her geographical location.
The patient is entitled to full information on his/her condition and management and the possible risks involved except in emergency situations when the patient is unable to make a decision and the need for treatment is urgent.
The patient is entitled to know of alternative treatment(s) and other health care providers within the Service if these may contribute to improved outcomes.
The patient has the right to know the identity of all his/her caregivers and other persons who may handle him/her including students, trainees and ancillary workers.
The patient has the right to consent or decline to participate in a proposed research study involving him or her after a full explanation has been given. The patient may withdraw at any stage of the research project.
A patient who declines to participate in or withdraws from a research project is entitled to the most effective care available.
The patient has the right to privacy during consultation, examination and treatment. In cases where it is necessary to use the patient or his/her case notes for teaching and conferences, the consent of the patient must be sought.
