Popis: | Geriatric interdisciplinary teams are needed to provide holistic health care planning for older adults. However, few professional schools prepare health care practitioners to work as effective members of such teams. Thus, the LIFE SPAN geriatric interdisciplinary team curriculum was developed to give students faculty‐guided theoretical and experiential educational experience in team practice. The 16‐hr, 4‐week curriculum introduces the student to team dynamics, assessment, problem solving, and patient care planning from the perspective of multiple disciplines. It uses community links to create this educational interaction. |
