Hello, I am Vynetta, and in this collaboration and leadership reflection video I will be discussing an important concern in the Vila health system (VHS). In VHS, patients’ safety was seriously compromised during the difficult installation and implementation of Healthix, a modern electronic health record (EHR) system. Whole EHR implementations face several obstacles, some of which are beginning to be overcome with the help of artificial intelligence methods from the field of computer science. In this video, I will reflect on an interdisciplinary collaboration experiences that I have come across and its impact on achieving the desired outcomes. I will discuss best possible leadership practices that will enhance the multidisciplinary team’s performance. Best collaboration among interdisciplinary teams’ strategies will also be discussed.
My perspective on the value of multidisciplinary teamwork has been shaped in part by my experience providing extensive care to the elderly population. It’s difficult and complex to deal with an ageing population. In the long term, participation in a diverse partnership was crucial to attaining the intended results. Each member of the team served a specific function. The strategy made sure that there wasn’t any or very little disagreement while the institution was providing care to the elderly population (Olotu et al., 2019). As a result of our mutual regard and understanding, the team members did not meddle with any stated roles related to EHR. Each task’s effect on the patients was something we were aware of. The project’s success also depended on the team’s skill combination.
Diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, hearing impairment, cataracts, and anxiety are just a few of the illnesses that the ageing population might develop. Each member of the team has to have a unique set of talents in this situation. The achievement of the targeted goals was also aided by the early formation of a clear vision. We agreed about implementation of new electronic health record system which can be important for achieving objectives. Our team had serious communication challenges. The members were from various ethnic backgrounds. The communication barriers made it difficult for us to converse. Individuals who did not speak the common tongue felt excluded. They therefore made a negligible contribution to the group. It would be wise to create strategies for enhancing group communication going forward because it promotes productive teamwork (Kiwanuka et al., 2019).
The majority of nurses are technologically literate, and they prefer electronic health records to traditional ones. But in Vila’s healthcare system, vital information isn’t being input, patients’ prescription regimens are getting thrown off, and care for patients is slipping as a result of the care staff’s difficulties using Healthix (Vila Health, n.d.). Nurses held the opinion that having access to the records hurt nursing practice by hindering critical thinking, decreasing interdisciplinary cooperation, and taking a considerable amount of time away from it. They believed that even while electronic medical data made it possible for them to provide safe care, the level of treatment also declined (Dunn Lopez et al., 2021).
In Vila health, there was poor collaboration in the implementation of the EHR because of a lack of communication and not enough training of the staff on the new software, Healthix (Vila Health, n.d.). Collaborative practice may suffer when there are problems with authority differences as well as a lack of understanding of each other’s roles and responsibilities during patient care. Collaboration is important when various professions work together because it helps to get the desired outcome (Dilles et al., 2021). The existing situation had several gaps, which contributed to the failure of the data collection system that was put in place.
Issues in workplace conditions have been connected to collaboration problems. The exact job distinction and the professionals’ accountability to the leading physician were two collaboration variables that helped to achieve the intended outcome (Kaur et al., 2018). It is important to emphasize that a team can find a solution to the problem of job prioritizing since nurses cannot skip taking care
