“…The results of the present study suggest that strong interprofessional and intraprofessional collaboration promoted the benefits of nursing and helped to resolve challenges. Both education 22 and use of communication tools 23 nities to improve their quality of care. It is likely that the medical fee system will be revised to apply this category to nursing, meaning more training seminars on municipal subsidies and use of communication tools could be held going forward.…”

“…The results of the present study suggest that strong interprofessional and intraprofessional collaboration promoted the benefits of nursing and helped to resolve challenges. Both education 22 and use of communication tools 23 are considered effective in promoting collaboration. Therefore, we propose that multiple professions receive training together, including training with outside professionals, on the theme of strengthening interprofessional cooperation and the use of communication tools.…”

BackgroundMany countries are experiencing rapid population aging, and the provision of support for older adults with diseases or disabilities to continue living in their communities is a major global challenge. Japan has established multifunctional long‐term care in small group homes and home‐visit nursing (MLSH) as a service category that integrates medical and care services. These services focus on nursing functions to support continuous, long‐term home, and end‐of‐life care for older adults with high levels of medical care dependency. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between nurses' perceptions of nursing benefits/challenges and the degree of interprofessional collaboration in the context of MLSH.MethodsWe conducted a mail questionnaire survey of MLSH facilities throughout Japan. All facilities in Japan that had been operating for at least 1 year were included. We analyzed 182 responses (response rate: 36.0%; valid response rate: 98.3%).ResultsComparison of scores representing the degree of interprofessional collaboration perceived by nurses showed the highest score was for colleague nurses (3.9 ± 0.5) and the lowest was for external care managers (2.5 ± 0.9). Compared with the weak collaboration group, the strong collaboration group had higher perceptions of the benefits of nursing and lower perceptions of the challenges.ConclusionsThe results of this study suggest that strong collaboration allows teams to achieve sufficient effects of care while reducing related challenges. It may be necessary to promote collaboration with external professionals to appropriately manage service users' worsened conditions and improve the quality of care.

“…In addition, it should be noted that the same 17-item TSS we used in our study continues to be used in IPE research even as late as 2020. 31,61,62 As a generic singlefactor scale, the use of TSS limited our understanding of more nuanced targeted competencies and actual team behaviors. Participants: Participants in the ATTP program were self-selected and likely more motivated to improve team skills, possibly even attending with intentions to start or reactivate a PD work team.…”

Introduction: Health care practitioners in Parkinson's care need to learn effective interprofessional team skills. This study examines posttraining effects on team skills of health practitioners attending an interprofessional education (IPE) program for team-based Parkinson's care. Methods: Using a quasi-experimental pre–post design, practitioners (n = 236) in nine professions (physician, nurse and nurse practitioner, physician assistant, occupational, physical and music therapy, speech-language pathology, and social work) completed the validated, self-report Team Skills Scale, before and after the training. Associations of Team Skills Scale change with intention to change practice, measured at end of each training day, and with improved attitudes toward team, knowledge, confidence, and amount of new information were examined. Results: All professions, except physician assistant, significantly improved perceived team skills, as did those showing greatest intention to change practice, with no meaningful differences in magnitude of change across profession groups. Team skills change was significantly associated with improved attitudes toward health care teams, increased knowledge about team and the role of other professions, and new knowledge gained. Confidence in Parkinson's care showed modest, statistically significant association with team skills improvement. Discussion: The Allied Team Training for Parkinson-IPE program significantly improved perceived team skills of health care practitioners, effectively teaching about skills for collaborative teamwork. Future IPE research should explore whether similar programs in other settings achieve the enhanced team skills competencies with postlicensure practitioners observed here and validate our findings from self-developed measures using larger samples, additional professions, and follow-up of transfer of learning effects through direct observation of skills of actual teams.
