PARTICIPATIVE MANAGEMENT

The departments are encouraged to function independently and autonomously. They have regular meetings in the department and discuss the running of the department including academics, maintenance, research, students and staff performance and patient management. The HOD’s of the department take decisions of the pattern of teaching in the theory and clinical training, schedule of classes and other forms of assessment, standard operating procedures of the department and other decisions on remedial teaching. All these decisions are shared with the principal who only assumes the advisory role to guide the HOD’s without undermining their authority. The individual departments report on the progress periodically thus ensuring accountability.
