Interprofessional collaboration

Interprofessional collaboration at Sunnybrook includes interprofessional education and interprofessional care. The team collaboration supports patient safety and satisfaction, staff satisfaction, access to care, and it helps us to use our resources wisely. It is essential that team collaboration is situated in an environment of respect.

Collaboration is one of our organizational values. We learn together so that we will work together to create the highest quality and safest care possible.

At Sunnybrook we define teams broadly and always consider who needs to be involved. Our teams include patients and their families and people of all roles and professions. Our work in interprofessional collaboration is grounded in our person-centred approach to care.
