Creating a Nursing Shared-Governance Structure

The Journey to Nursing Excellence, which we have been chronicling the last several weeks, is collaborative work that started in October 2019 at a series of nursing retreats. An important aspect of the resulting work is the creation of an updated nursing shared-governance model to align the mission, vision, philosophy, and goals of Cooper nursing.

A shared-governance graphic was created to represent the eight nursing councils at Cooper and each council’s stake in the process. The graphic symbolizes how each council and council member supports the whole.

All nurses are encouraged to participate and support the nursing councils as we continue the Journey to Nursing Excellence.
