Task Guidelines
This activity requires students from different professions to attend and observe an interprofessional shared workplace forum where patient/client care is discussed. Immediately after the forum, the students meet together to constructively critique the collaborative care elements of the forum.
Ensure you are aware of the purpose of the interprofessional forum and who usually attends.
Introduce yourself to the forum chair.
Use the worksheet to observe collaborative aspects of the interprofessional forum.
Students meet after observing the forum to constructively critique the collaborative elements of the forum.
This discussion can be student facilitated (i.e. no supervisors present) OR facilitated by a supervisor.
If student facilitated, decide how you will facilitate your discussion. For example, will you appoint a leader? Use the worksheet to facilitate discussion.
After the discussion, ensure the worksheet is complete, you have discussed it with your supervisor, and you have completed any necessary administration (e.g. supervisor signature) for your portfolio or placement assessment.
