Abstract
The Chief Nursing Officer and the Chief Medical Officer are responsible for the oversight of clinical outcomes within a complex and rapidly changing environment. Much attention has been paid to the interplay between these strategic executive roles. As the two chief clinical officers, they need to create synergy to realize the imperative of exemplary care delivery.
