Create an APA two paged reflection that addresses an interprofessional collaboration you experienced.
Please create a scenario regarding a nurse collaborating care for a patient in preperation for discharge. For example “I facilitated Respiratory therapy to come by and teach at home use of nebulizers, coordinate care with the social worker regarding patients needs and home health for continuity of care after discharge. Additionally I arranged a pharmacist to come and review home medications and new medications to ensure patient knows what he’s taking and how to do so safely.
What did or would effective leadership look like? What did or would effective collaboration look like? Remember that leadership can be demonstrated by those who aren’t in official leadership positions as well as by formal leaders.
Be sure that your assessment addresses the following criteria. Please study the rubric carefully so you understand what is needed for a distinguished score.
- Reflect on an interdisciplinary collaboration experience, noting ways in which it was successful and unsuccessful in achieving desired outcomes, and how effective leadership, or a lack of it, played a role. This may be the Sentinel U simulation on Interprofessional Collaboration. There are five modules in this simulation
- A simplified gap-analysis approach may be useful:
- What happened?
- What went well?
- What did not go well?
- What should have happened?
- A simplified gap-analysis approach may be useful:
- Compare and contrast effective leadership with ineffective leadership. What have you observed in others that works or doesn’t work when it comes to leadership?
- Given what you’ve shared about effective leadership and also what effective collaboration looks like, identify best-practice leadership strategies from the literature that would improve an interdisciplinary team’s ability to achieve its goals, citing at least one article from the literature.
- Also identify best-practice interdisciplinary collaboration strategies from the literature that would improve an interdisciplinary team’s ability to achieve its goals, citing at least one article from the literature.
- What leadership style do you think you need to develop more to support the above best-practice strategies you’ve described? How would you do that?
- Include a full reference list from relevant and evidence-based (published within 5 years) sources, adhering to APA format.
You will also be required to submit an APA-formatted reference list for any sources that you cited or used to inform your reflection.
