Introduction: Interprofessional Learning (IPL) is an approach that teaches students from different disciplines to share their professional knowledge in order to gain a more complex understanding of the situation at hand. According to WHO, interprofessional learning strengthens communication and the collaborative practice which in turn improves health outcomes for patients. Insufficient interprofessional communication due to inexperience with interprofessional teamwork can affect patients’ safety. Aim: To compare differences in nursing- and medical students readiness for interprofessional learning in Vietnam and if they believe that IPL could affect the quality of communication with patients. Method: A quantitative study was conducted, with a descriptive approach where the population consisted of nursing- and medical students at University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The data was collected through a structured questionnaire called Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS). Mann Whitney U-test was used for statistical analyzes. Results: A statistical significant difference, between the two professions, was found in four out of nineteen questions. Therefore we could not see a difference in readiness between the two professions. Regarding the students’ perception on IPL and communication, we could not see a statistical difference, the two groups had similar views on the topic.   Conclusion: We could only find a few questions that reflected an actual difference (p < 0.05) in opinion between the two professions.

A transmiss?o desse legado ? imprescind?vel para o avan?o cient?fico e tecnol?gico, mas tamb?m fundamental para a constru??o de uma cultura voltada para um ensino metaprofissional, metat?cnico, que forme o profissional ?tico e consciente da sua import?ncia no processo de transforma??o social. As fun??es da educa??o superior est?o previstas na Constitui??o da Rep?blica Federativa do Brasil de 1988, em seu artigo 207 que assim disp?e: ?as universidades gozam de autonomia did?tico-cient?fica, administrativa e de gest?o financeira e patrimonial, e obedecer?o ao princ?pio da indissociabilidade entre ensino, pesquisa e extens?o?. A compreens?o deste comando constitucional pelos sujeitos envolvidos no processo de forma??o acad?mica traduz-se em perceber a import?ncia da atividade extensionista em sua dimens?o social e humanista, capaz de reunificar os saberes compartimentados pelas r?gidas especializa??es disciplinares e n?o apenas como um res?duo ou ap?ndice da a??o universit?ria em seu vi?s assistencialista, a??es sociais t?picas das perspectivas liberais. Considerando a import?ncia da extens?o para a forma??o profissional do discente, o F?rum de Pr?-Reitores de Extens?o das Universidades P?blicas Brasileiras (FORPROEX), realizado em maio de 2012, criou a Pol?tica Nacional de Extens?o Universit?ria, que ratificou o Plano Nacional de Extens?o Universit?ria de 1999 e acrescentou outros objetivos necess?rios ao enfrentamento dos novos desafios para o fortalecimento da extens?o universit?ria no pa?s, sendo que um dos pontos que interessa ? pesquisa em tela ? o Objetivo 5 constante neste documento que visa ?estimular atividades de Extens?o cujo desenvolvimento implique rela??es multi, inter e ou transdisciplinares e interprofissionais de setores da Universidade e da sociedade?. Com fundamento na supracitada meta, a pesquisa em tela se prop?e a investigar como a pr?tica extensionista pode promover uma interliga??o de saberes atrav?s de metodologias multi, inter e ou transdisciplinares e interprofissionais e como a mesma pode contribuir para a forma??o profissional do discente, a partir da an?lise da experi?ncia vivenciada por 25 (vinte e cinco) acad?micos dos cursos de Direito, Servi?o Social, Nutri??o, Farm?cia, Biomedicina e Educa??o F?sica das Faculdades Unificadas de Te?filo Otoni/DOCTUM e Universidade Presidente Antonio Carlos/UNIPAC, ambas localizadas em Te?filo Otoni/MG, no Vale do Mucuri, em um Projeto de Extens?o denominado Universit?rio Cidad?o, realizado durante 15 dias das f?rias escolares de julho de 2011, nas cidades mineiras de Itaip? e Setubinha que apresentavam baixo ?ndice de Desenvolvimento Humano. Esta experi?ncia extensionista idealizada pelo Governo do Estado de Minas Gerais, gestada como pol?tica p?blica de combate ? pobreza nos vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri, deu ?nfase ao trabalho de equipes multiprofissionais, n?o sendo parcos os exemplos de intera??o entre os v?rios cursos de gradua??o. Ap?s 06 (seis) anos desta incurs?o em campo pelos discentes, quando j? se graduaram e est?o (ou n?o) inseridos no mercado de trabalho, atuando (ou n?o) nas respectivas profiss?es, recolhemos as impress?es destes dias de aprendizado interprofissional para analisar o impacto da atividade extensionista na forma??o profissional dos egressos. A pesquisa tem cunho qualitativo e a metodologia utilizada quanto aos fins foi descritiva e explorat?ria, sendo utilizada a an?lise documental e bibliogr?fica, al?m de estudos correlacionais. O instrumento utilizado foi a entrevista semiestruturada aplicada a oito participantes e a an?lise de dados foi organizada conforme metodologia apropriada da obra intitulada An?lise de Conte?do, de Laurence Bardin. / Disserta??o (Mestrado Profissional) ? Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Educa??o, Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri, 2017. / Throughout the history of civilizations, universities have played an important role in the development of societies, bearing a cultural heritage of knowledge, ideas and values. The transmission of this legacy is essential for the scientific and technological advance, but also fundamental for the construction of a culture focused on a metaprofessional, metatechnical education that forms the ethical professional aware of its importance in the process of social transformation. The functions of college education are described on the Constitution of Federative Republic of Brazil of 1988, article 207, that states: "universities have didactic-scientific, administrative, financial and patrimonial management autonomy, and will obey the principle of in-dissociability between teaching, research, and extension." The understanding of this constitutional command by subjects involved in the process of academic formation is translated by the perception of the importance of the extensionist activity in its redemptive dimension, capable of reunify the knowledge compartmentalized by rigid disciplinary specializations, and not only as a residue or appendix of the university action in their assistencialist bias, social actions typical of liberal perspectives. Considering the extension`s significance to the discent`s professional training, the Brazilian Public Universities Extension Pro-Rectors Forum (FORPROEX in the brazilian initials), held in May 2012, created a National Policy for University Extension, which ratified the National Plan for University Extension of 1999 and added other objectives necessary to face the new challenges for the strengthening of university extension, being one of the points of interest in this research the Objective 5 in that document that aims at "stimulating extension activities whose development implies in multi, inter and transdisciplinary, and interprofessional relationships between sectors of the University and society ". Based on the aforementioned goal, the onscreen research proposes to investigate how the extensionist practice can promote an interconnection of knowledge through multi, inter and transdisciplinary and interprofessional relations, and also contribute to the student`s professional formation, through the observation of the experience lived by 25 (twenty five) college students of the Law, Social Work, Nutrition, Pharmacy, Biomedicine and Physical Education courses of DOCTUM and UNIPAC Faculties, both located in Te?filo Otoni / MG, at the Mucuri Valley, in an Extension Project called ?Universitario Cidadao?, which has happened in the July`s 2011 vacation period, in the cities of Itaip? and Setubinha, located on the state of Minas Gerais, which had a low Human Development Index. This extensionist experience, managed as a public policy against poverty in the Valleys of Jequitinhonha and Mucuri, emphasized the work of multiprofessional teams, not being few the examples of interaction between the various graduation courses. Six years after the experience lived by the students, when those were graduated and inserted (or not) in the labor market, acting (or not) in their respective areas of graduation, we collected the impressions of these days of interprofessional learning to analyze the impact of the Extension Activity in the professional training of the graduates. The research has a qualitative character, and the methodology used for final and descriptive and exploratory purposes, using a documentary and bibliographic analysis, as well as correlational studies. The instrument used was a semi-structured interview applied to eigth participants and the data organized according to appropriate methodology of Laurence Bardin?s work entitle 'Content Analysis'.

Nurses have a key role in keeping patients safe from medical errors because they work at the point of care where most errors occur. Nursing work at the intersection of patients and health care systems requires high levels of cognitive activity to anticipate potential problems and effectively respond to rapidly evolving and potentially harmful situations. The literature describes nursing work at the intersection of patient and health care system as well as barriers to providing safe patient care. However, little is known about the systems knowledge nurses use to negotiate the health care system on their patients’ behalf, or how this systems information is exchanged between nurses. Using the clinical microsystem as the conceptual framework, this qualitative descriptive investigation identified and described: 1) the components of systems knowledge needed by nurses, 2) how systems information is exchanged between nurses, and 3) systems information exchanged between staff nurses and travel nurses. Data were collected from a stratified maximum variation sample of 18 nurse leaders, staff nurses, and travel nurses working within a high-functioning neonatal intensive care nursery within a large academic medical center in New England. Data collection methods included participant observation, document review, individual interviews, and a focus group session. Data were analyzed through constant comparison for emerging themes and patterns. Findings were compared for commonalities and differences within and across groups. Three components of systems knowledge emerged: structural, operational, and relational. Systems information exchange occurred through direct and indirect means. Direct means included formal and informal mechanisms. The formal mechanism of orientation was identified by each participant. Informal mechanisms such as peer teaching, problem solving, and modeling behaviors were identified by participants from each of the three nurse groups. Travel nurses’ descriptions of the common themes focused on individual efficacy. Staff nurses focused on fostering smooth unit functioning. Nurse leaders described common themes from a perspective of unit development. Four overarching domains of systems information were exchanged between staff nurses and travel nurses: practice patterns; staffing patterns and roles; tips, tricks, tidbits, and techniques; and environmental elements. Communication emerged as a common theme across nurse groups and domains of systems information exchanged. These findings have implications for nursing orientation and staff development, continuous improvement at the local level, and curriculum development.

O presente estudo buscou identificar e analisar a inserção do psicólogo na assistência a mulheres em situação de violência, na rede de serviços específicos da região metropolitana de São Paulo. A partir da perspectiva da necessidade de ações multiprofissionais e intersetoriais no enfrentamento e atenção às situações de violência de gênero, estudou-se como a assistência psicológica é organizada em serviços de diversas vocações assistenciais e como suas ações são articuladas com outros profissionais e outros serviços. Para tanto, foram levantados documentos normativos para a assistência (Ministério da Saúde e Secretaria Especial de Políticas para as Mulheres) e foram analisadas informações obtidas em entrevistas com profissionais de 109 serviços paulistas de diversas vocações assistenciais (policial, jurídico, saúde, psicossocial, abrigos, orientações básicas). Os psicólogos estavam presentes e foram solicitados em todos os tipos de serviços, com menor participação nos serviços policiais e jurídicos. Tiveram inserção tanto na capacitação e supervisão dos profissionais em geral, como no atendimento direto à clientela dos serviços. Na assistência, notou-se grande diversidade de práticas - atividades clínicas, educativas, de orientação, mediação jurídica, sendo freqüente o ajustamento destas intervenções aos objetivos e cultura hierárquica de cada categoria de serviço. No geral, os psicólogos eram chamados para atuar no fortalecimento da auto-estima, retomada da vida sexual, reestruturação da vida, elaboração da situação de violência, elaboração e saída da condição de vitimização, promoção de autonomia e busca de transformação dos padrões de relacionamento familiar/ conjugal ou de gênero. Esses objetivos estavam postos para as equipes dos serviços em geral, especialmente o primeiro. Na formulação dos objetivos dos serviços e do formato das atividades propostas percebeu-se influência de concepções e propostas assistenciais do movimento de mulheres. Observou-se que nem sempre havia distinção clara entre o trabalho do psicólogo e de outros profissionais, principalmente com relação ao trabalho do assistente social, resultando em indefinição de funções e ações. Esta indefinição poderia representar dificuldades no diálogo entre profissionais e entre serviços e na articulação de ações multiprofissional, o que comprometeria a atenção integral às mulheres em situação de violência. Por outro lado, essa indefinição pareceu possibilitar inovações na prática assistencial. Observou-se também que a articulação multiprofissional foi buscada, em geral, no interior das equipes dos próprios serviços, mas em alguns os profissionais buscaram a complementariedade de suas ações pela articulação com serviços de outras vocações assistenciais. Levantou-se a necessidade de melhores definições sobre a assistência psicológica voltada para mulheres em situação de violência, em relação ao trabalho especifico do psicólogo na rede especializada e na rede geral de atenção de São Paulo. / The aim of the present investigation was to identify and analyse the insertion of psychologists working in the network of services for assisting women experiencing violence in the metropolitan region of Sao Paulo. The organization of psychological assistance in diverse assistance vocations and the integration of psychologists in work teams and in other services were studied from the perspective of women\'s needs, and multi-professional and intersectoral actions in facing the situations and providing care for gender-based violence. For that, normative documents on violence care were researched (Ministry of Health and Department of Special Policy for Women) and data from interviews with professionals working in 109 services with diverse assistance vocations in Sao Paulo (police, justice, health, psychosocial assistance, shelters, basic assistance) were analysed. Psychologists are present and their work is requested in all types of services, but with less participation in police and justice facilities. They work in the training and supervision of other professionals, as well as directly assisting the public. A great diversity of practices was observed in the assistance - clinical, educational, orientation and judicial mediation activities - with frequent adjustment of these interventions to the objectives and hierarchical culture within each category of service. In general, psychologists are called to work in the strengthening of self-esteem, the resuming of sexual life, restructuring life itself, understanding of the situation of violence, working-out of and escape from the victim condition, promotion of autonomy and search for transformation in family/ intimate relationships or gender patterns. These objectives are put to the general teams working in the services, especially the first one. The influence of conceptions and proposals from the women\'s movement is perceived in the formulation of the services\' objectives and in the way the activities are developed. The distinction between the psychologists\' work and the work of other professionals is not always clear, especially regarding social work. This results in imprecise functions and actions, which may represent difficulties in the dialogue between professionals and services, and in the integration of multi-professional actions, potentially compromising integral care to women experiencing violence. On the other hand, this impreciseness opens up space for innovations in assistance practices. Multi-professional integration is, in general, also sought within work teams of each service, but in some of them the professionals search for complementarity in their actions and integration with services with different assistance vocations. There is a need for better definitions on the specific role of psychologists in the assistance of women experiencing violence, considering the specific network and the broader assistance network in Sao Paulo.

O processo de aprendizagem escolar ocorre em um dinamismo evolutivo a partir do amadurecimento das áreas corticais superiores, o que permite a aquisição da leitura, escrita, interpretação, argumentação, cálculo e raciocínio lógico. Diversos fatores podem interferir negativamente nesse processo levando às dificuldades de aprendizagem. Essas interferências podem ser por fatores intrínsecos primários como as alterações neurobiológicas que ocorrem no Transtorno Específico de Aprendizagem e no Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade (TDAH), ou por fatores intrínsecos secundários como os problemas psicoemocionais e doenças crônicas, ou ainda por interferências extrínsecas como os ambientais desfavoráveis. Neste trabalho, foi descrito o processo de triagem interdisciplinar do Ambulatório de Distúrbio de Comportamento e Aprendizagem (ADCA) do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina Ribeirão Preto da Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMRPUSP), para diagnóstico de dificuldade de aprendizagem em crianças de 6 a 10 anos procedentes de uma única escola do ensino fundamental. Devido à complexidade e interdisciplinaridade do tema abordado contou-se com profissionais da área da saúde (fonoaudiólogo, neuropediatra, neuropsicólogo, psiquiatra infantil e terapeuta ocupacional) e da educação (pedagogo) que participaram da aplicação de testes e discussão dos resultados para definição de diagnóstico. Foi realizada uma triagem baseada em análise estatística do rendimento escolar em 104 crianças, com seleção de 56 alunos (54%). No entanto, apenas 27 alunos (48%) dessa amostra concluíram as avaliações. Após a bateria de testes, todos os alunos selecionados que compareceram à avaliação, obtiveram ao menos um diagnóstico compatível com dificuldade de aprendizagem. Entre as causas mais frequentes das dificuldades de aprendizagem, encontrou-se os sintomas/transtornos de ansiedade, o TDAH e os transtornos específicos de aprendizagem, representados por 15 (55%), 13 (48%) e 6 (22%), respectivamente, dos alunos avaliados. Em alguns casos essas condições foram comórbidas. Conclui-se que a escolha por uma escola atendeu as expectativas de homogeneizar a população em estudo; a análise estatística de rendimento escolar pode ser considerado um método com boa sensibilidade; a baixa adesão às avaliações permite evidenciar o quão difícil é para os pais compreenderem a importância dessa investigação; a abordagem interdisciplinar foi uma avaliação criteriosa e conclusiva sobre os variados diagnósticos encontrados e por fim, os diagnósticos mais encontrados foram os sintomas/transtornos de ansiedade, seguido por TDAH e por Transtornos Específicos de Aprendizagem. / The process of school learning occurs in an evolutionary dynamism from the maturation of the upper cortical areas. They allow the acquisition of writing, reading, interpretation, argumentation, calculation and logical reasoning. Thus, many factors can interfer in this process negatively, generating learning disabilities. These interferences can be associated with; (1) primary intrinsic factors like the neurobiological alterations observed in the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Specific Learning Disorders (SLD); (2) secondary intrinsic factor like the psicoemotional problem or cronic diseases; (3) extrinsic interferences such as unfavorable ambient. This work described interdisciplinary evaluations to diagnose learning disabilities in children to 6 from 10 years. All the students are at the same school. It was chosen just one place to homogenize the population sample. The tests were applied in the Behavioral Disorder Learning Ambulatory (BDLA) in the Clinical Hospital of the School of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto - University of São Paulo. Due to the complexity and the interdisciplinary question, different types of health and educational professionals (speech therapist, neuropsychologist, neuropsychologist, child psychiatrist, occupational therapist and educacionalist) participated in this study. It was made a sorting of 104 children based on their school performance, which was selected 56 (54%). However, just 27 students (48%) finished the evaluation. After the tests, all students presented at least one diagnosis associated with learning disabilities. The most important causes found: 15 students (55%) with anxiety symptoms, 13 (48%) with ADHD and 6 (22%) with Specific Learning Disorders. In some situations, this conditions occurred simultaneously. In this way, it was concluded that: the statistical analysis showed a good sensibility; the lower accession in this research showed that the parents didn\'t know about the importance of this investigation; the interdisciplinary approach were carefully and conclusive evaluation of various diagnoses and the most frequence of them were: anxiety symptoms followed by ADHD and Specific Learning Disorders.

Introdução: Nas organizações de saúde, a Prática Interprofissional Colaborativa (PIC) e Clima do Trabalho em Equipe (CTE) são essenciais para promoção do cuidado integrado e melhoria na qualidade da assistência em saúde. Entretanto, a implementação da PIC tem se mostrado um desafio, com lacuna de conhecimentos relacionados a sua operacionalização no âmbito do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Assim como a PIC, o CTE preocupa-se com aspectos relacionais e organizacionais do trabalho interprofissional. Poucas investigações têm explorado a relação entre PIC e CTE. Este estudo considera as implicações do CTE para a PIC, destaca as ligações teóricas e empíricas entre os dois, e sugere como o CTE pode ter um papel na compreensão e operacionalização da PIC. Objetivo geral: Analisar a PIC em equipes de Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) com diferentes perfis de CTE. Método: estudo de método misto sequencial explanatório (quantitativo-qualitativo) realizado em 18 equipes da Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF), em município da região metropolitana de São Paulo. Na fase 1 (quantitativa), o CTE foi avaliado com a aplicação da Escala de Clima do Trabalho em equipe (ECTE) em 18 equipes da ESF (N=144). Para análise dos dados utilizou-se estatística descritiva, análise de agrupamentos (método Ward) e análise bivariada (t student). Na fase 2 (qualitativa), realizou-se estudo de caso múltiplo com entrevistas em profundidade com membros das equipes (N=24) que apresentaram escores contrastantes na ECTE. Na coleta e análise dos achados qualitativos foram utilizadas técnicas da teoria fundamentada em dados. Os resultados das fases 1 e 2 foram integrados. Resultados: Na fase 1 foram identificados dois agrupamentos de equipes: (A) com maiores e (B) de menores escores na ECTE. As diferenças entre os grupos foram estatisticamente significativas em todos os fatores da escala: participação na equipe (p<0,001), apoio para ideias novas (p=0,002), objetivos da equipe (p=0,001) e orientação para as tarefas (p=0,015). Achados da fase 2 corroboram os achados da fase 1, sendo as equipes do agrupamento A aquelas que apresentaram características relacionais e processuais mais favoráveis ao CTE e também à PIC. A análise interpretativa permitiu a identificação de duas modalidades contingenciais e dinâmicas de colaboração: 1) colaboração em equipe e 2) colaboração intersetorial, em rede e com a comunidade. Em torno das modalidades identificadas foi proposto um modelo da PIC. O modelo descreve as condições em que a PIC ocorre, as formas como se apresenta e suas consequências na organização da assistência à saúde. Conclusões: A análise do CTE mostrou-se capaz de prover insights sobre a PIC nas equipes. O modelo proposto apresenta conhecimentos que contribuem para compreensão e operacionalização da PIC. Os resultados sugerem que embora o clima de equipe tenha um papel importante na construção da colaboração, a compreensão da PIC no âmbito do SUS requer a consideração de elementos pertinentes à inovação no trabalho interprofissional e da própria forma de organização da APS e das Redes de Atenção à Saúde. / Background: In health care organizations, Interprofessional Collaborative Practice (ICP) and Team Climate (TC) are essential means to promote integrated care and improve health care quality. However, implementing ICP presents a series of challenges, and there is a lack of knowledge of how to operationalize this approach within the Brazilian Health Care System (SUS). Like Interprofessional Collaborative Practice, Team Climate is concerned with the effectiveness of relational and organisational aspects of interprofessional work. Few studies have explored the relationship between these two concepts or the role that Team Climate might play in establishing the operational conditions needed for Interprofessional Collaborative Practice. This study considers the implications of Team Climate for Interprofessional Practice, highlights the theoretical and empirical links between the two, and suggests how Team Climate may have a role in understanding and operationalising Interprofessional Collaborative Practice more effectively. Aim: To analyse ICP in Primary Health Care (PHC) teams with different TC. Methods: This is a mixed methods sequential explanatory study (quantitative-qualitative) conducted with 18 primary care teams from the Family Health Strategy (FHS), in the metropolitan region of São Paulo. In Stage 1 (quantitative), Team Climate was assessed using the Team Climate Inventory (TCI) in all 18 teams (144 participants in total). Data from the TCI were analysed using descriptive statistics, cluster analysis (Wards method) and bivariate analysis (Student t). In Stage 2, which used a multiple qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with members (N=24) from teams with contrasting scores on the TCI. Grounded theory techniques were employed to analyse the qualitative data. Findings from both stages of the research were then compared and considered together. Results: Two different clusters of teams were identified in Stage 1: (A) teams with the highest mean scores; and (B), teams with the lowest mean scores on the TCI. Differences between cluster A and B were statistically significant for all TCI factors: participative safety (p <0.001), support for new ideas (p = 0.002), team goals (p = 0.001) and task orientation (p=0.015). Findings from Stage 2 reinforced quantitative findings from Stage 1. Teams from cluster A demonstrated more positive relational and processual characteristics to support TC and ICP. Interpretative analysis revealed two dynamic and contingent modalities of collaboration: 1) team collaboration; and 2) collaboration between different health and social sectors, within a healthcare network, and with the community. A framework for Interprofessional Collaborative Practice in primary health care was developed, based on these modalities of collaboration, and describing the conditions, modalities and health care consequences of ICP. Conclusions: Analysis of Team Climate provided insights into ICP in healthcare teams. The proposed framework provides fresh insights into the understanding and operationalization of ICP, and suggests that although Team Climate is important in establishing collaboration, the understanding of ICP within SUS also requires consideration of a range of other factors, including innovation in interprofessional work and the organizational structure of PHC and Health Care Networks.

Bakgrund Mobila Intensivvårds Grupper (MIG) är idag etablerade på flera svenska sjukhus. MIG bidrar till att minska antalet hjärtstopp och till att patienter som är på väg att försämras upptäcks tidigare. MIG innebär också en trygghet för avdelningspersonalen. Delaktighet i MIG är en naturlig del i intensivvårdssjuksköterskans arbetsuppgifter. Syfte Att beskriva intensivvårdssjuksköterskors erfarenheter av interaktionen med avdelningspersonalen vid MIG-uppdrag. Metod En kvalitativ studie med semistrukturerade intervjuer har utförts vid två sjukhus. Resultatet har analyserats med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat Två teman framkom vid analysen, Betydelsen av interaktion för en sammanlänkad och säker vård samt Samspelsbefrämjande faktorer. Respondenterna anser avdelningspersonalens närvaro och engagemang som väsentlig vid MIG-uppdraget för att patienten ska få en sammanlänkad och säker vård. Respondenterna upplever att avdelningspersonalen ibland inte förstår vikten av deras närvaro och att MIG då behöver arbeta aktivt för att få avdelningspersonalen mer engagerad. Det interprofessionella samarbetet gagnar inte enbart patienten utan gynnar även den professionella utvecklingen genom utbyte av kunskap. För att interaktionen ska fungera optimalt krävs att MIG bekräftar avdelningspersonalen och att alla involverade vid MIG-uppdraget har en gemensam bild av situationen och delar samma mål med vården. Resultatet diskuterades utifrån den teoretiska referensramen Relationship Centered Care. Slutsats Interaktionen vid MIG-uppdrag fungerar väl när MIG och avdelningspersonalen samarbetar och kompletterar varandra. Välfungerande samarbete och sammanlänkad vård i samband med MIG-uppdrag leder till ökad patientsäkerhet. Klinisk betydelse Samarbetet vid MIG-uppdrag stärks genom utbildning och praktisk träning i interprofessionellt samarbete. Genom mer utbildning, tydligare kommunikation från MIG och ökad återkoppling kan avdelningspersonalen få en större förståelse för vikten av deras delaktighet vid MIG-uppdragen. / Background Mobile Emergency Teams (MET) are established at several Swedish hospitals. MET helps to reduce the number of cardiac arrest and patients who are about to deteriorate are detected earlier. MET also means security for the staff at general wards. Being involved in the MET is a natural part of the critical care nurse's work assignments. Aim To describe the critical care nurses' experiences of interaction with the staff at general wards during MET- assignments. Method A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews was carried out at two hospitals. The collected data were analyzed by qualitative content analysis. Results Two themes emerged from the analysis, The importance of interaction for an interconnected and safe healthcare and Teamwork promoting factors. Respondents believe attendance and commitment from the staff at general wards as important in MET- assignments for the patient to get interconnected and safe care. Respondents experience that ward staff sometimes don´t understand the importance of their presence and that MET then need to work actively to get the ward staff more committed. The interprofessional collaboration is not only beneficial for the patient but it also promotes the professional development through the exchange of knowledge. For the interaction to work optimally it requires MET to confirm the staff at general wards and that everyone involved in the MET-assignment has a mutual perception of the situation and the goal with the treatment. The results were discussed using the theoretical framework Relationship Centered Care. Conclusion The interaction in MET-assignments works well when MET and the staff at general wards work together and complement each other. Effective collaboration and interconnected healthcare during MET-assignments increases patient safety. Clinical significance The collaboration during MET-assignments can be strengthened through education and practical training in interprofessional collaboration. Through more training, clearer communication from MET and increased feedback can the staff at general wards gain a greater understanding of the importance of their participation in MET-assignments.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the professional development practices of physiotherapists working in long-term care homes in Ontario. A survey was created based on relevant literature and piloted for this study. The survey included both quantitative and open-ended questions. 44 Physiotherapist responded, which represents approximately 10% of physiotherapists working in long-term care in Ontario. The results indicate that physiotherapists are isolated from their physiotherapist peers and lack access to communities of practice, professional socialisation, professional culture and social regulation. Although physiotherapists’ interactions with interprofessional teams added breadth to their knowledge, these interactions did not enhance their profession-specific skills. Many physiotherapists are seeking professional community and social supports in healthcare settings outside of the long-term care context. The implications of this study are that physiotherapists, their professional associations, and their college must understand the importance of professional socialization in learning, and ensure that physiotherapists working in long-term care have access to and seek such social support. Physiotherapy service providers in long-term care should provide mentoring, support and opportunities for social learning for their clinicians. Finally, long-term care homes and the Ministry of Health and Long-term care need to ensure that policies provide a better definition of the role of physiotherapists in long-term care.
