Summary: 

Successful transition of care is built on the concept of a collaborative care team at every level of care.  Dr. Eric Coleman has often alluded to the fact that “transitions of care is a team sport.”  Knowing what the traits of a successful team culture should be helps us understand the focus and importance of building successful care teams. It also means opening up the communication channels not only between the all the providers of care but to include the patient and family caregiver as well.  When you have the care team defined does everyone know their role and the role of others?  Do we know how to communicate clearly, how to address different points of view and how to handle conflict?  Did we throw our collaborative care team together quickly or really assess, evaluate and embraced change when current roles and functions were not working?  This session will look at how we can address these concerns.
