Interprofessional approach to fall prevention in hospital care.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the perception and experience of health professionals regarding fall prevention practices in hospital inpatient units. METHOD: This is a qualitative exploratory and descriptive case study based on the Canadian framework of interprofessional competences. Data was collected from two focus groups, with different health professionals in each group, and thematic content analysis was used. RESULTS: Five categories were drawn up which showed intense convergence between the participants of the two focus groups, within the context of fall prevention practices: communication between professionals and patients/carers for fall prevention, interprofessional communication for fall prevention, clarification of roles for fall prevention, health education about risk and fall prevention and continuing education for fall prevention. CONCLUSION: Teamwork and collaborative practice are important for achieving good results in the prevention of falls in hospital care, but for this to happen, health professionals need to acquire the necessary competences for collaborative action.

Team climate and patients' perception of primary healthcare attributes in Brazil: a cross-sectional study.

Team climate and attributes of primary healthcare (PHC) are key elements for collaborative practice. Few researchers have explored the relationship between team climate and patients' perceptions of PHC. This study aimed to assess the association between team climate and patients' perceptions of primary healthcare attributes. A quantitative approach was adopted. In Stage 1, Team climate was assessed using Team Climate Inventory in 118 Family Health Strategy (FHS) teams at a PHC setting. In Stage 2, Patients' perceptions of PHC attributes were assessed using the Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCATool) in a sample of 844 patients enrolled in teams studied in Stage 1. Cluster analysis was used to identify team climate groups. The analysis used multilevel linear regression models. Patients assigned to teams with the highest team climate scores had the highest PHC attributes scores. Patients who reported affiliation at the team level had the highest PCATool scores overall. They also scored higher on the attributes of comprehensiveness and coordinated care compared to patients with affiliation to the health unit. In conclusion, patients under the care of FHS teams exhibiting a more favorable team climate had more positive patient perceptions of PHC attributes.

Team climate and job satisfaction in a mobile emergency service: a multilevel study.

OBJECTIVE: to investigate the relationship between team climate and job satisfaction among professionals working in mobile pre-hospital care. METHOD: this is a quantitative, correlational study carried out in a mobile pre-hospital care service in the São Paulo Metropolitan Region. The participants were 95 professionals, allocated to 40 teams, who answered three questionnaires: sociodemographic/labor data, Team Climate Scale and S20/23 Job Satisfaction Scale. Descriptive statistics and multilevel linear models were used for the analysis, including moderation effects. The Backward method was used to ascertain the order of significance. RESULTS: in the models, the relationships between satisfaction with hierarchical relationships and the factor "support for new ideas" moderated for men and "task orientation" for women were significant. For satisfaction with the physical environment, "working hours" and "participation in the team" were significant and, for intrinsic satisfaction, the regime, working hours and the factors "team objectives", "participation in the team" and "support for new ideas" remained significant, as did the moderation effect between length of service, "participation in the team" and "support for new ideas". CONCLUSION: team climate is influenced by job satisfaction in a heterogeneous way and the moderating effect of this relationship is associated with gender and length of service. BACKGROUND: (1) There was a positive perception of the team climate and job satisfaction. BACKGROUND: (2)The team climate influenced job satisfaction in a heterogeneous way. BACKGROUND: (3) The moderating effect of this relationship was associated with gender and working hours. BACKGROUND: (4) The working regime and working hours directly affected intrinsic satisfaction.

Characterization of interprofessional education experiences in health education at the University of São Paulo.

OBJECTIVE: To map the experiences of Interprofessional Education (IPE) in Health at the São Paulo campus of the University of São Paulo. METHOD: This is a descriptive, exploratory study with a quantitative approach and data collection through an online questionnaire addressed to teachers from eight teaching units and 14 health courses. The data was analyzed using absolute and percentage frequencies. RESULTS: The majority of teachers do not take part in IPE experiences (70.4%). Most of the experiences are between six and ten years old, involving up to four teachers and small groups of students, mostly extracurricular or extension activities. The teaching and assessment strategies are diverse and open to students of all years. CONCLUSION: IPE experiences involve a small number of students and teachers and, although consolidated in terms of the time they have been offered, are limited to extracurricular spaces. Factors such as improvements in institutional support and teacher development are pointed out as important for making progress in strengthening IPE in the analyzed context.

Interprofessional collaboration in primary health care from the perspective of implementation science. / A colaboração interprofissional na atenção primária à saúde na perspectiva da ciência da implementação.

The objective was to analyze the perceptions of primary health care (PHC) workers about interprofessional collaboration from the perspective of implementation science. This is a qualitative study that used in-depth interview as a data production technique. Interviews were conducted with 15 workers (three community health agents, one nursing assistant, three nurses, three managers, three physicians, and two nursing technicians) from basic health units in the Municipality of São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo State, Brazil. The interview plan was based on three domains of the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Thematic content analysis was used. In the interprofessional collaboration characteristics domain, respondents highlighted the complexity, and its possible influence, as to the implementation and sustainability of this practice. In the inner setting domain, factors that influence interprofessional collaboration were identified, namely: how the time allocated to formal communication/team meetings is used; social interactions between professionals; and leadership characteristics, such as feedback, autonomy and participation in decisions. In the individuals characteristics domain, participants noted interprofessional collaboration geared to quality of care and the need for integration between knowledge centers. Thus, measures to enhance the quality of communication, collective team building and leadership can contribute to improve interprofessional collaboration in PHC and leverage its impacts on health care.

Comunicação interprofissional e participação do usuário na Estratégia Saúde da Família / Interprofessional communication and user participation in the Family Health Strategy

Resumo Este estudo trata sobre as competências colaborativas para o fortalecimento do trabalho em equipe e colaboração interprofissional nos serviços de Atenção Primária à Saúde, apoiado no referencial do processo de trabalho em saúde, trabalho interprofissional e competências. Tem o objetivo de compreender as concepções e experiências dos profissionais das equipes da Estratégia Saúde da Família sobre as competências colaborativas centrais: comunicação interprofissional e atenção centrada no paciente. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa exploratória e interpretativa. Foi utilizado banco de dados secundário, com 34 entrevistas realizadas com profissionais das equipes de três unidades de saúde localizadas em dois municípios. Adotou-se análise de conteúdo temática, com apoio do software WebQDA. Os resultados evidenciam o entendimento dos profissionais sobre as competências colaborativas como complementares, não podendo ser tratadas de forma independente. A comunicação interprofissional é reconhecida como foco no atendimento às necessidades de saúde do usuário, limitada pelas condições de trabalho insatisfatórias. A atenção centrada no paciente aparece de forma frágil, visto que o sentido da participação do usuário prevalece como transferência da responsabilidade pelo seu cuidado para os profissionais e de forma minoritária, como compartilhamento na construção do plano de cuidado.

Abstract This study deals with collaborative competencies to strengthen teamwork and interprofessional collaboration in Primary Health Care services, supported by the framework of the health work process, interprofessional work and competencies. Its objective is to understand the conceptions and experiences of professionals from the Family Health Strategy teams regarding the core collaborative competencies: interprofessional communication and patient-centered care. This is an exploratory and interpretative qualitative study. A secondary database was used, with 34 interviews conducted with professionals from the teams of three health units located in two municipalities. Thematic content analysis was adopted, with support by the WebQDA software. The findings show the professionals' understanding of collaborative competencies as complementary and as impossible to being treated independently. Interprofessional communication is recognized as a focus on meeting the user's health needs, limited by unsatisfactory working conditions. Patient-centered care appears weak, since the sense of user participation prevails as a transfer of responsibility for their care to professionals and in a minority way, as sharing the construction of the care plan.

Collective leadership to improve professional practice, healthcare outcomes and staff well-being.

BACKGROUND: Collective leadership is strongly advocated by international stakeholders as a key approach for health service delivery, as a response to increasingly complex forms of organisation defined by rapid changes in health technology, professionalisation and growing specialisation. Inadequate leadership weakens health systems and can contribute to adverse events, including refusal to prioritise and implement safety recommendations consistently, and resistance to addressing staff burnout. Globally, increases in life expectancy and the number of people living with multiple long-term conditions contribute to greater complexity of healthcare systems. Such a complex environment requires the contribution and leadership of multiple professionals sharing viewpoints and knowledge.  OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of collective leadership for healthcare providers on professional practice, healthcare outcomes and staff well-being, when compared with usual centralised leadership approaches. SEARCH METHODS: We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, five other databases and two trials registers on 5 January 2021. We also searched grey literature, checked references for additional citations and contacted study authors to identify additional studies. We did not apply any limits on language. SELECTION CRITERIA: Two groups of two authors independently reviewed, screened and selected studies for inclusion; the principal author was part of both groups to ensure consistency. We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that compared collective leadership interventions with usual centralised leadership or no intervention. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Three groups of two authors independently extracted data from the included studies and evaluated study quality; the principal author took part in all groups. We followed standard methodological procedures expected by Cochrane and the Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC) Group. We used the GRADE approach to assess the certainty of the evidence. MAIN RESULTS: We identified three randomised trials for inclusion in our synthesis. All studies were conducted in acute care inpatient settings; the country settings were Canada, Iran and the USA. A total of 955 participants were included across all the studies. There was considerable variation in participants, interventions and measures for quantifying outcomes. We were only able to complete a meta-analysis for one outcome (leadership) and completed a narrative synthesis for other outcomes. We judged all studies as having an unclear risk of bias overall. Collective leadership interventions probably improve leadership (3 RCTs, 955 participants). Collective leadership may improve team performance (1 RCT, 164 participants). We are uncertain about the effect of collective leadership on clinical performance (1 RCT, 60 participants). We are uncertain about the intervention effect on healthcare outcomes, including health status (inpatient mortality) (1 RCT, 60 participants). Collective leadership may slightly improve staff well-being by reducing work-related stress (1 RCT, 164 participants). We identified no direct evidence concerning burnout and psychological symptoms. We are uncertain of the intervention effects on unintended consequences, specifically on staff absence (1 RCT, 60 participants).  AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: Collective leadership involves multiple professionals sharing viewpoints and knowledge with the potential to influence positively the quality of care and staff well-being. Our confidence in the effects of collective leadership interventions on professional practice, healthcare outcomes and staff well-being is moderate in leadership outcomes, low in team performance and work-related stress, and very low for clinical performance, inpatient mortality and staff absence outcomes. The evidence was of moderate, low and very low certainty due to risk of bias and imprecision, meaning future evidence may change our interpretation of the results. There is a need for more high-quality studies in this area, with consistent reporting of leadership, team performance, clinical performance, health status and staff well-being outcomes.

Team climate and job satisfaction in a Mobile Emergency Care Service.

OBJECTIVE: to identify the team climate and job satisfaction in a Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU). METHOD: this is a quantitative, exploratory-descriptive study. The sample corresponded to 95 workers, allocated in 40 teams of a SAMU in the Metropolitan Region of the city of São Paulo. We applied three instruments: sociodemographic/labor characterization; Team Climate Inventory; and Job Satisfaction Scale-S20/23, validated for Brazil. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis. RESULTS: the total score of team climate was high both among workers (194.5 points; SD = 21) and among teams (197.7 points; SD = 18.4). Satisfaction had a mean total score of 4.5 (SD = 0.4), for workers, and 4.6 points (SD = 0.6), for teams. As for the climate, "Team participation" and "Support for new ideas" obtained agreement percentages >70% in all propositions. Regarding job satisfaction, there was a percentage of concordance >80% in the three dimensions. CONCLUSION: the findings show a positive perception of workers about team climate and job satisfaction, supporting SAMU management in promoting a favorable environment for professional practice.

Relationship between team climate and satisfaction at work in the Family Health Strategy.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association between team climate, team characteristics and satisfaction at work in teams of the Estratégia Saúde da Família com Saúde Bucal (Family Health Strategy with Oral Health) (ESF with SB). METHODS: Cross-sectional correlational study with ESF teams with SB in the municipality of São Paulo. Universe of 1,328 teams and random sample of 124 teams with 1,231 professionals. Applied questionnaire with data teams' characterization, team climate scale, and satisfaction at work. Analysis of validity, of climate and satisfaction scores through mean among professionals in each team, cluster analysis, association between variables by Pearson's correlation and Chi-square, and tested linear regression model for the two factors of satisfaction at work. RESULTS: There was a directly proportional association between team climate and satisfaction at work. The better the climate with regard to team goals, the greater the intrinsic satisfaction at work and with the physical environment. The better the climate with regard to team goals and task orientation, the greater the satisfaction with hierarchical relations. The group with best team climate reported higher percentage of teams ranked with better satisfaction at work, and in the group with the worst team climate there was higher percentage of teams with the lowest satisfaction at work. CONCLUSIONS: The study provides consistent although moderate evidence of association between favorable teamwork climate and job satisfaction in ESF with SB. It emphasizes the dimensions of climate, common goals and task orientation, and may serve as subsidy for management and permanent education of teams, aiming at the quality of care to the health needs of users, family and community in APS.

Implementation of evidence-based nutritional management in primary health care settings: a systematic scoping review.

Scientific evidence is used to inform clinical nutritional guidelines in order to prevent diseases and promote health. However, little is known about the process of implementing evidence-based clinical nutritional guidelines in health services. This scoping review aims to map the steps in the implementation of evidence-based nutritional management within primary health care, as well as the facilitators and barriers to implementation. Electronic databases and the grey literature were searched for original studies on the implementation of evidence-based dietary recommendations and/or nutritional counselling in primary health care settings conducted by health practitioners. Studies were selected by independent reviewers. Extracted data were analysed and grouped into thematic categories and are presented in a narrative synthesis. In all, 26 studies were included. A review of the studies demonstrated four steps in the process of implementing evidence-based nutritional management in primary care: (1) acknowledging health needs in the catchment area and determining the characteristics of services and health professionals; (2) developing continuing education aimed at practitioners; (3) integrating nutritional management into interprofessional practice; and (4) adapting the interventions using a patient-centred care approach. The predominant facilitators were providers' pre-intervention training and the provision of support materials. Barriers included time constraints, a lack of resources and an incompatibility of the interventions with living conditions and patients' health needs.
