BOOST! Workshops

BOOST!

We are offering an innovative foundational team-based care workshop in a virtual synchronous interactive format with an aim to improve interprofessional collaborative practice for clinical and project teams across organizations.  We welcome interprofessional team members to come together to work collaboratively on their teamwork or individually to bring learnings back to their team.  To optimize collaborative learning, we utilize virtual large group reflections, small group breakout discussions, video team simulation and best practices in virtual team facilitation.  Teams in all areas of health care are striving to provide collaborative models of care that optimize patient outcomes and experiences, particularly with the challenges and silver lining of a COVID-19 impacted system.  This is an opportunity to enhance the collaborative practice environment for all staff and students. 

Objectives:

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

Apply the Canadian Interprofessional Health Collaborative (CIHC) Competencies to enhance collaborative, relationship-focused care
Explore strategies and tools to optimize team communication, clarify roles, negotiate responsibilities, resolve disagreements, and lead collaboratively.
Examine current team processes and identify opportunities to boost team success
