Interprofessional Practice in Health and Social Care: Challenging the Shared Learning Agenda

Interprofessional Practice in Health and Social Care: Challenging the Shared Learning Agenda

by Carolyn Miller (Author), NickRoss (Author), Marnie Freeman (Author)

Synopsis

Over the past decade there have been increasing calls from successive governments for health and social care professionals to work more closely together. The purpose of the multi-professional approach to health care is to provide a seemless service for patients by working as an inter-professional team. The authors explore the issues and problems faced by health and social care professionals when working in shared learning initiatives, and offer models to help them develop a multi-professional service. They present a template based on clinical case study material and highlight the key themes important in developing a successful teaching curriculum for shared learning. Based upon the findings from a report commissioned by the English National Board who have declared learning must be incorporated into future health care education, 'Multi-Professional Clinical Teamwork & Shared Learning in Health & Social Care' evaluates the latest approach and information.
