dc.description.abstractThis study examined the effects of implementation of corporate governance reforms on delivery of health care services in Embu Level Five Hospital. This study explored the independence and autonomy of the appointed board of directors, examined conflict of interest between appointed management and the board of directors and assessed effects of implementation of corporate governance procedures on service delivery in Embu Level Five Hospital. This study was anchored on two complementary theories namely; the agency and the stewardship theories. A total of 380 respondents were selected for field interviews. Findings from the study indicated that although the adoption of corporate governance procedures in Embu Level Five Hospital has translated to improvement of the delivery of health care services to patients there still exist challenges of lack of an independent and autonomous board of directors and the existence of conflict of interest among managers entrusted with the running of the hospital.
