Shared Governance

A Model for Nursing Leadership

At Houston Methodist, shared governance serves as the framework to incorporate shared decision making based on the principles of partnership, equity, accountability and ownership at the point of care. Our model empowers all members of the interprofessional team to have a voice in decision making, encouraging diverse and creative input that will help advance the strategic plan and mission of Houston Methodist. Our shared governance model features councils at both the unit and organizational level.
