Clinical governance councils & committees

Our nurses are encouraged to grow by participating in clinical governance councils and committees dedicated to improving nursing practice. Through their own professional growth and by acting as mentors to their colleagues, the nurses provide valuable leadership and guidance, helping the nursing profession itself to grow.

Nurses shape clinical practice through involvement and decision-making on unit-based or hospital-wide committees and councils. These councils and committees include research, practice, education, leadership, clinical progression and peer review, advanced practice, nursing quality, staffing and scheduling, protocol, procedure, and plans of care. Membership on the clinical governance councils and committees includes staff nurses, educators, advanced practice nurses, and nursing leaders.
