  • Title: Shared governance: a Canadian experience.
    Author: Perry F, Code S.
    Journal: Can J Nurs Adm; 1991 Jun; 4(2):27-8, 30. PubMed ID: 2069965.
    Abstract:
    Control over practice, nursing shortages and better utilization of personnel are serious problems facing nurses in hospitals today. Shared governance models are one way to enhance professionalism, thus making the practice of nursing appealing. Effects of moving toward a shared governance model are described with examples derived from a rural hospital in British Columbia. Practical recommendations are given which support nursing leaders who dare to risk deep structural change.
