Why Focus on Role Clarification? • Interprofessional collaboration requires communication between professionals, common goal setting, problem solving skills, and a clear understanding of each member’s role on the team. • Role clarification among healthcare professionals is uniquely important as several professions’ roles can overlap and potentially cause conflict. • Clarifying each member’s role helps reduce intra-team conflict, mitigate role ambiguity, dissolve professional boundaries, and build trusting relationships. | ||
