Every healthcare profession has an exclusive domain — prescriptions and surgery for physicians, injections and wound care for nurses, function and daily living for therapists. But around a single patient, these domains interlock like puzzle pieces.
In this 5-minute lecture, we use a stroke patient's recovery journey to see how physicians, nurses, PTs, OTs, speech-language pathologists, and dietitians hand off care to one another — and why respecting each other's boundaries IS patient safety.
Part of the IPE Guidebook (Season 2: Unique Domains & Collaboration) by Telios Books.
