5-10 minute video reflection on an experience in which you collaborated inter-professionally as an RN, as well as a brief discussion of an interprofessional collaboration scenario and how it could have been better handled.
Be sure that your assessment addresses the following criteria:
Reflect on an interdisciplinary collaboration experience, noting how it was successful and unsuccessful in achieving desired outcomes.
Identify how poor collaboration can result in inefficient human and financial resources management, citing supporting evidence from the literature.
Identify best-practice leadership strategies from the literature that would improve an interdisciplinary team’s ability to achieve its goals, citing at least one author from the literature.
Identify best-practice interdisciplinary collaboration strategies to help a team achieve its goals and work together, citing the work of at least one author.
A simplified gap-analysis approach may be useful:
What happened?
What went well?
What did not go well?
What should have happened?
Communicate professionally, is easily audible, and use proper grammar. Format reference list in current APA style.
After your reflection, examine the scenario in the Vila Health activity and discuss how the interdisciplinary team did not collaborate effectively and the negative implications for the human and financial resources of the interdisciplinary team and the organization as a whole.
Building on this investigation, identify at least one leadership best practice or strategy that you believe would improve the team’s ability to achieve its goals. Be sure to specify the strategy and its source or author and provide a brief rationale for your choice of strategy.
Additionally, identify at least one interdisciplinary collaboration best practice or strategy to help the team achieve its goals and work more effectively together. Again, identify the strategy, its source, and reasons why you think it will be effective.
You are encouraged to integrate lessons learned from your self-reflection to support and enrich your discussion of the Vila Health activity.
Cite at least 3 professional or scholarly sources of evidence to support the assertions you make in your video. Include additional properly cited references as necessary to support your statements.
