AONL podcast explores how professional governance transformed a culture
In an AONL podcast, nurse leaders at IU Health Jay Hospital in Portland, Ind., explain how they collaborated with clinical nurses to implement a professional governance model that positively influenced key indicators. Christina Schemenaur, MSN, RN, chief operating officer and CNO, and Parker May, RN, a nursing professional development generalist, explain how the model prioritized nurse autonomy and a just culture to provide a positive practice environment for all team members. The new model empowered nurses to make practice decisions and become solution-oriented, improving patient care and their overall satisfaction. To listen to previous podcasts, visit the AONL website.
