Hospital security and human rights

Abstract

Health security is, by nature, collective and the responsibility of the public health system. For what is related to quality of care. Its meaning is aimed at a positive balance between risks and benefits, reducing the dangers associated with health care. The issue of security is fundamental because of its implications for the health and life of the human being. The right to health is a human right enshrined in international treaties and national legislations. Health care has become a social necessity and the need to adopt safety programs in the face of the risks and dangers existing in the hospital environment has been recognized, since not doing so puts at risk all those who collaborate and do use of the hospital, and also the environment.
