Introduction

Interprofessional collaboration is a critical aspect of a nurse’s work. Through interprofessional collaboration, practitioners and patients share information and consider each other’s perspectives to better understand and address the many factors that contribute to health and well-being (Sullivan et al., 2015). Essentially, by collaborating, health care practitioners and patients can have better health outcomes. Nurses, who are often at the frontlines of interacting with various groups and records, are full partners in this approach to health care.Reflection is a key part of building interprofessional competence, as it allows you to look critically at experiences and actions through specific lenses. From the standpoint of interprofessional collaboration, reflection can help you consider potential reasons for and causes of people’s actions and behaviors (Saunders et al., 2016). It also can provide opportunities to examine the roles team members adopted in a given situation as well as how the team could have worked more effectively.As you begin to prepare this assessment you are encouraged to complete the What is Reflective Practice? activity. The activity consists of five questions that will allow you the opportunity to practice self-reflection. The information gained from completing this formative will help with your success on the Collaboration and Leadership Reflection Video assessment. Completing formatives is also a way to demonstrate course engagement Note: The Example Kaltura Reflection demonstrates how to cite sources appropriately in an oral presentation/video. Your assessment will reflect on either a professional collaboration you experienced or a collaboration case study scenario that you imagine you experienced

Professional Context

This assessment will help you to become a reflective practitioner. By considering your own successes and shortcomings in interprofessional collaboration, you will increase awareness of your problem-solving abilities. You will create a Kaltura video of your reflections, including a discussion of best practices for interprofessional collaboration and leadership strategies, supported by references to the literature.You may choose to reflect on a collaborative interprofessional project you worked on in your current or former place of practice, or you may choose to imagine that you worked on the collaborative interprofessional scenario presented in the Assessment 01 Supplement: Collaboration and Leadership Reflection Video [PDF] resource.

Scenario

As part of an initiative to build effective collaboration at a site where you work as a nurse, you have been asked to:

• Reflect on an interprofessional collaborative project.
• Examine what happened during the collaboration.
• Identify positive aspects and areas for improvement.

• Use lessons learned from your research and experience to create a video reflection (5-10 minutes) that share suggestions for improving interprofessional collaboration that can be shared with leadership and colleagues.

Instructions

Using Kaltura, record a video (5–10 minutes) where you reflect on an interprofessional collaboration experience, proposing recommendations for how to improve interprofessional collaboration that can be shared with leadership and colleagues. Support these recommendations with references to the literature.The interprofessional project that you reflect on may be one that you collaborated on at your current or former place of practice, or you may choose to imagine you collaborated on the interprofessional project presented in the Assessment 01 Supplement: Collaboration and Leadership Reflection Video [PDF] Download Assessment 01 Supplement: Collaboration and Leadership Reflection Video [PDF]resource and reflect on that.Be sure that your assessment addresses the following criteria.

Read pages 460-461 of your textbook to learn more about the challenges of long-term care. Based on what you have learned so far (1) Why is important and challenging to offer insurance for long-term care? (2) What kind of solution you can think of to increase value and/or reduce costs in long-term care? (3) Are there any type of organizations (think ACOs, etc) be able to offer these services at a low cost that would allow insurers to participate in this market?
