A standardized, electronically formatted document encompassing the guidelines, rules, and operational instructions that govern a healthcare institution’s daily activities is a critical resource. It details the necessary steps for staff to follow in various situations, from patient care protocols to administrative tasks.

The availability of such comprehensive documentation promotes consistency in practice, reduces errors, ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, and enhances patient safety.
