Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstract

Abstract

Background
Since 2012, NUH has embedded a shared governance model in clinical areas across the trust.
The CAS division have embraced this roll out and now nearly all areas have their own ‘unit practice council’.
The focus of attention has therefore moved from setting up shared governance councils, to finding ways to support and enhance their ongoing success.

Aim
To provide a qualitative service evaluation of shared governance highlighting the enablers and barriers for a model shared governance council.

Research Questions
What is the Added Value of Shared Governance?
What are the Barriers to Shared Governance?
What Makes Shared Governance a Success?

Method
A Qualitative Evaluation using ethnographic observational methods and focus groups with shared governance councils.

Data Collection
36.5 hours observation of shared governance meetings
24 staff attended across four focus groups

Findings
A Shared Governance Framework has been developed to map key aspects required to ensure a culture of shared governance at a micro, meso and macro level.
