Quality Management Unit at KAUH was established in 2009 June. The Unit reports to the KAUH, Medical Director and is supervised by the QM Director for KSU Hospitals. The QM Unit took responsibility to build quality culture in the organization and to embed the International Standards of health care in our processes to raise the bar of quality.
