Nursing homes and private clinics
The risk sector in private health care facilities
In Italy, private health care facilities play a primary and growing role alongside the public health service:
- nursing homes
- clinics and specialised surgery centres
- polyclinics
THE MAIN RISKS THAT CHARACTERISE THE SECTOR
The use of technologically advanced machinery requiring huge economic investments, the management of complex and articulated structures where numerous professionals operate as well as the delivery of a service that is potentially dangerous by its very nature require a technical approach that preserves invested capital through:
- adequate coverage of assets
- appropriate allocation of liability to the manager and individual professionals
- the protection of the corporate image and turnover
