The Norwegian Board of Health Supervision ((ノルウェー語:Statens helsetilsyn), short name ''Helsetilsynet'') is a national government institution under the Norwegian Ministry of Health and Care Services. The Norwegian Board of Health Supervision is an independent supervision authority, with responsibility for general supervision of child protection, health and social services in the country. The Norwegian Board of Health Supervision directs the supervision authorities at the county level: the Offices of the County Governors. ==Supervision of health and social services in Norway means ensuring that legislation is complied with== In Norway there are many acts relating to health and social services that: *lay down requirements for the quality of services *regulate the practice of health care personnel who have professional authorization *give users of health and social services rights, for example those laid down in the Patients’ Rights Act. Supervision is carried out for all statutory services, including services that are provided by publicly owned hospitals, municipalities, private organizations, and health care personnel who run their own practice. However, the supervision authorities are independent of political direction, and to a large extent decide themselves about priorities for which services to supervise and which areas supervision shall include. Priorities are decided, among other things, on the basis of information about risk and vulnerability. The supervision authorities contribute to ensuring that: *the needs of the population for health and social services are met *services are run in accordance with statutory requirements and acceptable professional standards *deficiencies in provision of services are prevented *resources are used effectively and efficiently. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Norwegian Board of Health Supervision」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
