Abstract: | The process of providing health services in hospitals is inherently interdisciplinary; many of the challenges to enhancing quality and safety involve the human aspects of this interdisciplinary system. Each of the major discipline - physicians, nurses, allied health providers, and health administrators - represent qualitatively different set of goals and professional values, affecting not only current behaviour but also who chooses these roles in the first place. Once a career is selected, the educational process further fortifies these differences, such that new professionals enter the workplace with fundamentally divergent perspectives on how care should be provided and how processes should be improved. This article offers a guide to hospital organizational behaviour through the lenses of professional preparation and interprofessional conflict. |
