just released: care teams practice module and workflow modification checklist from quality insights
 In delivering health care, an effective teamwork strategy can immediately and positively affect patient safety and outcomes. The need for effective teams has increased due to the influx of co-morbidities and the need for specialization of care. The evolution of health care and a global demand for quality patient care require a patient-centered teamwork approach. This can only be achieved through sharing a culture of values and principles focused on providing quality care that is patient-centered. Care teams should be backed by strategies and practical skills in order to achieve goals and overcome challenges.
