POLICY: Nursing Leadership in Integration - Report of the RCN Chatham House commissioning event

An RCN report of a discussion with Directors of Nursing and Associate Directors of Nursing on commissioning in an integrated world

This report of RCN Scotland’s nursing leadership event on integrated strategic commissioning (sponsored by the Scottish Government) highlighted one key messages: Nurse leaders want to bring their expertise to the table and to fully engage in the commissioning process, but variable levels of immersion in these radical new reforms are limiting their influence nationally and in many emerging partnerships. Their potential to provide robust professional leadership to support these reforms is being under-utilised in many areas.
