Aim Of The Study:
Interprofessional collaboration is a main precondition of successful treatment in rehabilitation. In order to improve interprofessional collaboration, a clinic-specific, goal- and solution-oriented and systemic team development approach was designed. The aim of the study is the evaluation of this approach.
Methods:
A multi-centre cluster-randomized controlled study with staff questionnaires.
Results:
The team development could be implemented successfully in 4 of 5 clinics and led to significant improvements in team organisation, willingness to accept responsibility and knowledge integration. The effects are small and are caused by the opposed development of intervention and control group.
Conclusions:
The team development approach can be recommended for rehabilitation practice. A train-the-trainer approach will be developed and further studies are planned in order to disseminate the approach and to investigate the conditions of implementation.
