Creating the healthiest society requires healthcare practitioners to collaborate with each other, patients, and the surrounding community. Yet, healthcare practitioners are traditionally trained in professional silos detached from the communities they serve.
Alan Dow's Handbook of Interprofessional Practice: A Guide for Education & Collaborative Care educates students, faculty, and practitioners about how we can overcome these gaps between the professions and across our communities by providing more collaborative healthcare that better meets the needs of society.
Handbook of Interprofessional Practice describes the key concepts underlying interprofessional collaboration, including:

  • professional identity and scope of practice,
  • the influence of context on professional responsibilities,
  • the different types of interprofessional collaboration,
  • the evolution of groups,
  • group process and decision-making,
  • conflict and advocacy, and
  • collaborating to improve quality.
In addition to in-depth discussions of each concept, Chapters include questions designed to have readers apply concepts to their current or future practice and provoke deeper reflection about how they can collaborate more effectively. These materials can be used for individual learning or as part of broader discussions in a classroom or other educational setting.
By developing more collaborative practitioners, we can create better interprofessional practice and build a healthier society for all of us.
