Purpose of the risk management
Ellen Medical Clinic has dedicated itself to offering essentially active leadership and conformity support in an effort to build up and maintain: a program to control human and economic losses arising from property damage and physical harm; a program to reduce the seriousness of injury arising from illness or accident, and to return the wounded to the health and normal roles promptly; a program of disaster and fire prevention preparedness to manage losses from explosion, fire, or other disaster. Also, the clinic is dedicated to underwrite the security, shield and welfare of personnel, patients, and property of Ellen Medical Clinic, by the control and prevention of physical misconduct and violence, sabotage or theft.
