Effective Team-based Health Care
One of the basic responsibilities of the healthcare system is to provide the quality care to the patients, which does not only require the good work of the attending physicians, however, the cooperation of the medical team. Providing effective team-based health care to the patients is one of the most important purposes of the modern health care system. When an individual doctor used to provide care and health facilities to a whole community, it increased the cost of treatment, as well as required greater time, before the people could get the consultation and treatment. However, the formation of the medical teams have accelerated the quality of care, reduced the cost and improved the health care system as well.
The authors of the research article have highlighted the fact that there are some in-competencies in the health care system which can give rise to uncoordinated care and unnecessary waste and cost. The perils which play an important role in this regard include the fact that if the health care staff available in the emergency room is not able to treat a certain specific condition, it will cause a threat to the life of patients. If they would try to transfer the patients to another department, it would take time, increasing the risks of survival. So, creating effective team-based health care is very important in order to save the patients and provide them with quality service (Mitchell, & Golden, 2012).
The communication and interdisciplinary collaboration can prevent the adverse events in the way that the health care staff would be aware of the needs of the patients, as well as the expertise of the professionals, which can help them to take timely action. Moreover, the collaboration of the staff would help them to improve their teamwork and leadership, in order to improve the heat acre system.
