Teamworking
This document summarizes the final report from the Forum on Teamworking in Primary Healthcare. The forum was convened by several national healthcare organizations to examine teamworking in primary care. The report found evidence that effective teamwork occurs when roles are clearly defined and rewarding, communication is good, and there are shared goals. It identified barriers like competing demands, status differences, and lack of resources. The report provides recommendations to improve teamworking at both the organizational and team member levels. It also highlights several examples of successful teamworking initiatives in UK primary care settings.
