Interprofessional collaborative practice involves a partnership between a teamof health professionals and a client in a participatory, collaborative and coordinated approach to shared decision- making around health and social issues*

*Orchard, CA, and Curran, V., Centres of excellence for interdisciplinary collaborative professional practice. Prepared for Office of Nursing Policy: Health Canada, 2003.

What is interprofessional collaborative practice?



⟩ Interprofessional care -- all health professionals work together in developing a plan of care with a patient

⟩ Multi-disciplinary care -- each health professional assesses the patient on his/her own and all the health professionals may or may not discuss their individual plans for the patient

Interprofessional vs. Multi-disciplinary Care
