nursing self evaluation examples: Opportunities and Challenges of Interprofessional Collaboration and Education, volume II Jill Thistlethwaite, Martina Müller-Schilling, Anthony Paul Breitbach, John Humphrey Victor Gilbert , Ciraj Ali Mohammed, Sophie Schlosser, 2025-04-30 Following the success of Opportunities and Challenges of Interprofessional Collaboration and Education, we are pleased to present Volume II of this collection. Interprofessional collaboration is essential in meeting today's health challenges, which demand high flexibility and innovation. Many health organizations including the World Health Organization (WHO) demand that interprofessional collaboration should be taught and learned globally. Even so, interprofessional education tools have not yet been widely implemented in the curricula of medical professions (incl. physicians, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, etc.); this training usually takes place separately. Collaboration is necessary in health professions education as it can allow professionals to increase their skills and help them achieve more than they would at an individual level. Collaboration also allows for more open-minded approaches when facing new ways of thinking. When knowledge is shared, healthcare employees are more encouraged to share their own ideas and concerns. These achievements of interprofessionalism within health profession education not only benefit the student and employee, but also optimize patient care and increase patient safety. Productivity can also be increased and therefore, reduce costs overall. |
