This series will explore the different types of governing bodies, with their attending responsibilities, on which chief nurse officers serve. A comparison of the administrative nature of the governing body with executive management will be described relative to legal, risk management, ethical, and liability concerns. Exploration of potential and actual conflicts that nurse executives who are board members may confront will also be highlighted. Chief nurse officers, who are board members, will discuss the required investments and benefits of board membership.
