    Abstract:
    One of the major activities of a professional group is credentialing and privileging their membership to practice their profession. This article reviews one approach to the development of a hospital nursing credentialing and privileging mechanism: the shared governance. The process discussed focuses on staff responsibility for the appropriate credentialing of their nursing peers.
