Clinical governance framework development process

The framework and guidance has been developed by the Professional Development Committee (Gill Stotter—Chair, Ben Darlow, Melissa Davidson, Karen Evison, Jillian McDowell, and Gisela Sole), drawing heavily from the NZ Health Quality & Safety Commission’s framework for clinical governance.3 The development has been informed by expert input, existing literature and frameworks, and stakeholder consultation. The Professional Development Committee is grateful to those who have provided input into the framework and guidance, including the PNZ members on the ACC Expert Reference Group, Dr Karen Webster (Senior Lecturer: Paramedicine, AUT), and Dr Iwona Stolarek (Medical Director, Health Quality & Safety Commission).
