> Subject: 	Re: Clinical Governance
> 
> To Whom It May Concern,
>  
> I am a post-graduate BSc Nursing Science student at the University of
> Northumbria at Newcastle, and a new member of the network. My interest
> in Shared Governance stems from course work I am developing around the
> governments Clinical Governance proposals contained within the "New
> NHS" White Paper, 1998.
>  
> I wondered whether anyone may be able to provide me with any
> interesting references or works which are pertinent to this subject.
> Specifically in relation to individual or organisational perceptions
> of changes in accountability and responsibility post White paper, or
> the local implementation of shared governance initiatives. As I am
> attempting to put together three separate peices of work around the
> same subject! My rough ideas for these three peices of work are as
> follows:
>  
> 1. A research proposal into practitioners perceptions of any changes
> in their accountability and responsibility post White paper. Possibly
> utilising a case study format and a broad range of health care workers
> from Chief Executive across Consultants through various grades of both
> medical and nursing staff.
>  
> 2. A critical essay examining the White Paper as a policy document in
> relation to issues of power, accountability, responsibility and
> clinical effectiveness.
>  
> 3. And finally my reflective practice dissertation in which I hope to
> examine the concepts of accountability, responsibility, power and
> clinical effectiveness more fully.
>  
> As you can see these are pretty wide ideas at the moment as I am in
> the planning stages of each piece of work. Reading around and looking
> for the handle on each of them. If anyone can help at all I'd be very
> grateful, otherwise I apologise for congesting peoples email.
>  
> Yours sincerely,
