“…Review of the published literature finds more or less equivocal remarks on the evidence for effectiveness and utility of multidisciplinary approaches. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] One of the reasons why there is no direct evidence regarding the success of teamwork in healthcare is the [31][32][33][34][35][36] Another reason would be the technical difficulty in conducting analyses of multidisciplinary approaches. Important factors that hinder such efforts include poor definition of team types and theoretic concepts, variability of populations, and healthcare settings support and infrastructure.…”

“…Research is not enough, however, to support the hypothesis of collaboration's necessarily improving the client's situation or reducing work overlap (Beresford 2000;Bronstein 2003;Graham and Barter 1999;Hesjedal, Hetland, and Iversen 2015;Lopez et al 1998;Sundqvist et al 2015;Weinstein, Whittington and Leiba 2003;Anell and Mattisson 2009, 57-5, 92, 109-12;Johansson 2011, 74-5). According to Reitan (1997Reitan ( , 1998, a structural unwillingness to collaborate with other organizations exists.…”

“…Collaboration is an important aspect of social work, with previous collaborative research showing that conflicts are common between collaborating actors and organizations and authorities that are supposed to cooperate (Beresford 2000;Bronstein 2003;Graham and Barter 1999;Hesjedal, Hetland, and Iversen 2015;Lopez et al 1998;Sundqvist et al 2015;Weinstein, Whittington and Leiba 2003;Basic 2012Basic , 2013Basic , 2015aBasic , 2015b. 1 Institutional Care (abbreviated NBIC), or Statens institutionsstyrelse (abbreviated SiS) 2 , and the social services in Sweden.…”

“…23 If many people in the team are involved in a decision making process, the wider ownership leads to a greater perceived legitimacy of decisions and increased support for their implementation. 117 However, it is also important to make sure that, in common with the principles described earlier regarding team size (see Section 4.3.2), there are the minimum number of people involved to achieve an effective outcome. There needs to be some discretion for 'practitioner-only' decisions, otherwise the team is likely to become mired in protracted meetings around minutiae.…”
