Educational Goal
The educational goal of this workshop is for participants to reflect on their own understanding and practices of collaboration and develop new approaches to improved collaboration in care.
Description
In this workshop we will review strategies to improve our collaboration with patients or clients. We will review our role in this collaboration from three levels:
1) The Macro or Systems Level: What does collaboration mean for us working in complex health care systems with multiple conflicts of interest acting on us?
2) The Interpersonal Level: What are good strategies to use in session with patients or clients to improve the quality of the therapeutic relationship?
3) The Intrapersonal Level: What are our own internal processes, barriers, and skills that influence the way we collaborate? The workshop will be largely informed by principles of health equity, access and social determinants.
