Implementation of an interprofessional collaboration model in an ambulatory setting

Abstract

Collaborative practice is necessary for the changing environment of healthcare, yet it is not widely implemented. An ambulatory setting was selected for implementation of an interprofessional collaboration model. Collaborative practice breeds shared decision making, which increases the engagement of care team members, and improves patient outcomes.
