Aim This paper aims to describe how shared governance can be successfully integrated into existing management structures in a large medical directorate. It will show how the shared governance philosophy can lead to the creation of a culture where nurses feel important and valued and also consider its use as a foundation for the implementation of the nursing strategy.
