Effective Team Working course for GPs
This session examines how working within and across multidisciplinary teams to deliver and improve services can bring benefits to patients. This session contributes to the development of leadership in clinical settings.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Describe the range of teams and team structures that are found in healthcare settings, including those of which you are a part
- List the advantages of working across networks to deliver and improve services
- Identify the characteristics and benefits of multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) as well as any associated difficulties
- Demonstrate your contribution to leadership by identifying action to improve the way clinical teams function
Teams in healthcare will vary significantly their structure, purpose, task, setting and members. Frequently, team membership is fluid and teams lack clear boundaries.
