Despite increasing emphasis on interdisciplinary team work over the past decade, in particular the growth of interdisciplinary education [ 1], there is little evidence as to the most effective way of delivering interdisciplinary team work [ 2].

    This article discusses the complexity of Interdisciplinary team work with different types of staff working together to share expertise, knowledge, and skills to impact on patient care. . Despite emphasis on interdisciplinary team work over the past decade and the growth of interdisciplinary education, there is little evidence as to the most effective way of delivering interdisciplinary team work. This difficulty is compounded by the multifactorial nature of team work, which comprises the skill mix, setting of care, service organization, individual relationships and management structures. The research provided a theoretical understanding of interdisciplinary team work and developed a framework to define the characteristics.

    This article highlighted that there is still a lot of work to do to get healthcare members to but in to the concept of teamwork and that the patient and the family should be the main focus. All personal differences need to be set aside and that team members need to understand how each roles plays an integral part into the patients and families' need for good outcomes.

Acquisition and Maintenance of Competencies Through Simulati... : Advances in Neonatal ... - 0 views

  • Neonatal nurse practitioners from novice to expert attend a didactic review of high-risk, low volume occurrences (such as recognition and treatment of various cardiac arrhythmias and utilization of a defibrillator in an emergency situation), followed by a procedure lab where participants can demonstrate mastery of all technical skills
  • practitioners are then placed in multidisciplinary teams and undergo several advanced level simulations followed by video-debriefing sessions which allow for further evaluation of their knowledge base, critical thinking, leadership and communication abilities, team performance, and technical skills performance in critical situations.
  • This article will review the evidence supporting simulation, define the core elements of health care simulation, describe the bodies that regulate advanced practice nursing, identify the principle areas in which neonatal nurse practitioners (NNPs) must maintain proficiency and expertise, and illustrate how simulation is utilized in acquisition, maintenance and competency evaluation for NNPs

Autonomy of nurse practitioners in primary care: An integrative review - 0 views

shared by bnichola168 on 27 Aug 17 - No Cached
  •  
    This article discusses the benefits and pit-falls to autonomous primary care Nurse practitioner practice and advocates for cost effective improvements to our healthcare system. The research suggests that Nurse practitioners who practice independently report greater job satisfaction, improved patient outcomes and provide low cost, high quality services that are equal or superior to primary care physicians. Unfortunately, current healthcare reimbursement models, policies and reluctant physicians have created barriers to autonomous NP practices. The author suggests that autonomous practice requires further research across the U.S, the establishment of a well-defined model and the evaluation of patient outcomes, in order to determine whether the present day Nurse Practitioner requires future collaborative agreements with physicians, in order to provide quality patient care across the United States.

Nurse Practitioner Vs. Physician Assistant | 2017 NurseJournal.org - 0 views

  •

  •  
    On several occasions, we get asked, "So what exactly is the difference between an NP and a PA?" This article is very recent and does a really nice job of breaking down the key differences between an NP and a PA on a deeper level.
  •  
    This article does a great job defining the role, education, and scope of the APRN compared to Physician Assistants. This is a great resource to be able understand the distinction for ourselves and to use to educate others about our unique role in health care as APRNs.
