Leadership in Interprofessional Health Education and Practice
Book (italiano):
Royeen (occupational science and occupational therapy, St. Louis U.) Jensen (physical therapy, Creighton U.) and Harvan (family medicine, U. of Colorado, Denver) examine the changing landscape of health care as it continues to grow more diverse while encountering gaps in delivery, shortfalls in capacity, and declining quality. They describe how interdisciplinary teams are becoming increasingly important in attempts to reform care, despite their members' lack of experience and time management skills. They detail the context, complexity, challenges, professional education and their relation to the common good, and make recommendations for accreditation agencies. Along the way they describe changes in practice and theory, professional assessment, practice amongst underserved communities (especially the geriatric population), the role of the librarian, cultural sensitivity, in-service learning, research, social environmental and occupational practice, and building a healthcare workforce that reflects the people served.
