A transdisciplinary team, consisting of members from various disciplines and professions, provides patients with the best quality of health care, through collaboration and communication among team members. Healthcare Matrix formulation, a practical tool for assessing health care quality, can comprehensively evaluate the health care received by patients. In addition, this formulation helps to find out where the problems are, in the aspect of teamwork communication, clinical records, patient safety, work efficiency, and so on. The team members can fill out Healthcare Matrix forms and share their experience of taking care of patients during the transdisciplinary team meeting. This study was to investigate whether application of Healthcare Matrix to transdisciplinary teamwork allows team members in our hospital to profoundly realize the model of transdisciplinary teamwork, and allows the members of various professions to have more systematic and comprehensive learning about each element of Healthcare Matrix, through professional communication to achieve the team goals and avoiding mistakes. The results showed that application of Healthcare Matrix to transdisciplinary teamwork helped team members (1) to have a better understanding of their own professional knowledge; (2) to improve their communication skill, allowing them to express themselves more clearly; (3) to know themselves better and review their own insufficiencies through interprofessional discussions, which can increase their own professional knowledge and offer patients the most suitable healthcare quality and persistent care plan. |
