The hospitals which are leading institutions in the public service sector, in which technology is used intensively, which highlights the professionalism and team work, necessitates the understanding of corporate governance. In this study, we undertook a cross-sectional analysis of voluntarily 220 personnel in a teaching hospital between September-November 2011 using Clinical Governance Climate Questionnaire developed by Freeman.We found significant differences on planned and integrated quality improvement programme, proactive risk management, training and development opportunities and organisational learning dimensions between doctors and assisting health personnel. Additionally, while the evaluations of the doctors on quality improvement dimension are more positive than assisting personel, the evaluations of assisting personnel on the proactive risk management, training and improvement and the organizational learning dimensions are more positive.
