An argument against interprofessional training in health care programs is that health care workers are capable of learning to cooperate interprofessionally as students through their discipline-only clinicals or through time spent in the workforce. Other arguments, such as the ones Chen, Delnat, and Gardner (2015) argues in their article, what are that students have enough clinical hours as it is, “scheduling conflicts, funding, and/or separation of education and practice”. Interprofessional education refines and focuses on different skills, but some of these skills can be learned without interprofessional education, but then quality of skills or student comfortability with these skills may decrease. When some people say interprofessional training can be learned through their discipline-designed clinicals or that these skills will develop once students graduate and are working in their career, they do not understand that these skills need a foundation to be fully developed. Communicating to a different discipline in health care is only one of many steps in building an interprofessional working relationship, but the how, what, and the who is just as …show more content…
An example of the importance of interprofessional training is that when a physical therapist works with a patient in the hospital. If the patient is in too much pain or is sleepy from the medication the physical therapist will not be able to accomplish much. However, if the physical therapist contacts the nurses beforehand and informs them of the time he will arrive to work with a patient, the nurse could make accommodations. This would allow the patient to accomplish the physical therapist’s intended tasks for the day and the patient’s recovery time could decrease exponentially. Many patient’s care relies on their health care team effectively cooperating and acting as a cohesive unit for the patient to experience optimal
The authors of this journal discuss the healthcare systems cutbacks and its impact on the population. Every few years the Ontario government and the Ontario Medical Association (OMA) negotiate their contract called The Physician Services Agreement (PSA) The contract details how much physicians can bill for their services, as well as where health care funding should be invested in or where a cut back could be. In March of 2014, the contract had expired, which has led to negotiations for over the year. Over that year negotiations for the new PSA contract had many conflicts mostly due to the government’s goal try to end the province's deficit by 2017-2018.
Compare interprofessional values and ethics. Nurses versus Radiologist Technologist Brent Sterling Ohio State University NRSADVN 4600 Abstract In the medical field, there are many disciplines that must work together, using interprofessional collaborative efforts for the good of the patient being served. In regards to the IPEC core competencies for inner professional collaborative practice under values/ethics VE 5, we will be comparing how the nurses collaborate with radiologic technicians. The focus of this paper will be centered around how the two disciplines work in cooperation with those who receive care, those who provide care, and others who contribute to support the delivery of prevention
In life some feel the need to prove something to others. That they are better, stronger, or even more intelligent. Whatever the case may be people will go through extreme measures to prove themselves. But who do we really need to prove anything to? Is it our parents?
With Training Camp on the horizon, there are plenty of things to watch out for with the Detroit Red Wings. The team will be starting a new era under their new head coach Jeff Blashill, the new acquisitions of Mike Green and Brand Richards, and a lot of optimism around the team. One of the many things to talk about come training camp is always the development of younger players and prospects. Detroit for the last few years has had one of the strongest farm systems in the NHL/AHL and this year is none different. This year Detroit could see one or two prospects actually make the team from Grand Rapids.

Before interviewing my partners I was expecting to gain a better understanding of other health care professions’ study process, curriculum, fields to work after graduation.
With the year-round pressure pertaining to college applications on high school seniors follows the impending decision of choosing an appropriate college major. Generally, the decision-making process involves prioritizing one field of interest over another, however, due to globalization and constant innovation in technology determining a college major has increasingly become the modern day equivalent of the metaphorical line between life and death. Even so, the obvious choice would be the prestigious STEM fields over liberal arts due to the instant job opportunities which are seemingly ludicrous to a recent graduate. Nevertheless, liberal arts education should be encouraged to be pursued at higher education institutions in USA because it helps

Should Artificial Intelligence Be Continued To Be Developed? This quote by James Comey depicts just how far technology has come and how well it has integrated into our lives. Over the last decade, technology has done nothing but advance, and people, especially teenagers, have become very accustomed to using it in their everyday lives. Gadgets such as cars, phones, and computers have all been created over time to make our lives easier and more efficient.

The topic illustrates that effective health care for individuals is a complex and multifaceted issue that involves various medical professionals across disciplines. In today's healthcare domain, there is an increasing emphasis on the value of teamwork, communication, and collaboration among healthcare professionals. The role of multidisciplinary teams in healthcare settings is crucial to delivering quality care that addresses the complex needs of patients.

Hello Melissa, Hello Melissa, I enjoyed reading your post. I would like to expand on your post about promoting interprofessional collaborative care with occupational therapy. Care coordination is dependent on a deliberate organization of patient care activities between two or more participants, including the patient (Moyers & Metzler, 2014). As you mention, accountable care organizations and patient-centered medical homes are excellent examples that benefit from interprofessional collaboration. Occupational therapy is another important care coordination model that is essential in helping people in gaining their mobility and independence.
