In 1997 Jeanette Ives Erickson, RN, Senior Vice President for Patient Care Services and Chief Nurse introduced Collaborative Governance (CG) as an important element within the framework of the Professional Practice Model. Collaborative Governance is the decision-making process that places the authority, responsibility and accountability for patient care with practicing clinicians. Collaborative Governance is based on the beliefs that a shared vision and common goals lead to a highly committed and productive workforce, that participation is empowering and that people will make appropriate decisions when sufficient knowledge is known and communicated.
