At Tenet, we believe that sound principles of corporate governance serve the best interests not only of our shareholders, but also of our other constituencies, such as patients, physicians, employees, suppliers and communities.


Corporate Governance Principles
These principles have been approved by the Board and along with the charters and key practices of the Board committees, provide the framework for the governance of Tenet.  View Tenet's Corporate Governance Principles (PDF, 109 KB).
