  • hospital based nurse practitioner roles and Interprofessional Practice a scoping review
    Nursing & Health Sciences, 2014
    Co-Authors: Cheryl Forchuk, Christina Hurlockchorostecki, Carole Orchard, Mary Van Soeren, Scott Reeves
    Abstract:

    : This scoping review provides current global understanding of the rapidly evolving nurse practitioner role within hospital settings, and considers the level of understanding of its enactment within Interprofessional teamwork. Arksey and O'Malley's framework was used to explore recent primary research, reviews, and gray literature in two ways. First, hospital-based nurse practitioner literature was mapped to country of origin, and thematically summarized. Second, clearly developed and consistently defined key Interprofessional concepts were identified in the Interprofessional literature then conceptually mapped to the nurse practitioner studies by their operationalization. The nurse practitioner review located 103 abstracts. Twenty-nine, originating from four countries, met the inclusion criteria. The Interprofessional concept review identified a total of 137 relevant abstracts, however, only ten met the inclusion criteria. Understanding the nurse practitioner role within hospital teams remains limited due to a small number of countries producing evidence, the lack of nurse practitioner role title standardization hindering consistent knowledgebase development, and limited application and inconsistent operationalization of concepts within nurse practitioner research. Research focused on role enactment is needed to understand the uniqueness of the hospital-based nurse practitioner role.

  • the role of nurse practitioners in hospital settings implications for Interprofessional Practice
    Journal of Interprofessional Care, 2011
    Co-Authors: Mary Van Soeren, Christina Hurlockchorostecki, Scott Reeves
    Abstract:

    Expansion of the nurse practitioner (NP) role worldwide indicates a need to understand how the role functions in Interprofessional healthcare teams. Through the adoption of a mixed methods approach that gathered on-site tracking and observation, self-recorded logs of consultations and focus group interviews of team members and NPs, we describe the extent of role activity and the nature of Interprofessional Practices of 46 NPs and their team members in nine hospital sites across the province of Ontario, Canada. Findings outline the nature of the NP role activities, which largely focused on providing clinical care, with the support of their team, to a range of patients across the study settings. We discuss how 'embedding' the NP in this way appears to contribute to utilization of expertise of all professions as well as enabling team members to promote evidence-based Practices. We argue that the use of NPs augments Interprofessional role utilization through their desire to consult with a range of professionals and the capacity to perform holistic care for patients that is not limited to traditional nursing boundaries.

  • enacting team and teamwork using goffman s theory of impression management to illuminate Interprofessional Practice on hospital wards
    Social Science & Medicine, 2011
    Co-Authors: Simon Lewin, Scott Reeves
    Abstract:

    Interprofessional teamwork is widely advocated in health and social care policies. However, the theoretical literature is rarely employed to help understand the nature of collaborative relations in action or to critique normative discourses of teamworking. This paper draws upon Goffman's (1963) theory of impression management, modified by Sinclair (1997), to explore how professionals 'present' themselves when interacting on hospital wards and also how they employ front stage and backstage settings in their collaborative work. The study was undertaken in the general medicine directorate of a large NHS teaching hospital in England. An ethnographic approach was used, including interviews with 49 different health and social care staff and participant observation of ward-based work. These observations focused on both verbal and non-verbal Interprofessional interactions. Thematic analysis of the data was undertaken. The study findings suggest that doctor-nurse relationships were characterised by 'parallel working', with limited information sharing or effective joint working. Interprofessional working was based less on planned, 'front stage' activities, such as wards rounds, than on ad hoc backstage opportunistic strategies. These backstage interactions, including corridor conversations, allowed the appearance of collaborative 'teamwork' to be maintained as a form of impression management. These interactions also helped to overcome the limitations of planned front stage work. Our data also highlight the shifting 'ownership' of space by different professional groups and the ways in which front and backstage activities are structured by physical space. We argue that the use of Sinclair's model helps to illuminate the nature of collaborative Interprofessional relations within an acute care setting. In such settings, the notion of teamwork, as a form of regular interaction and with a shared team identity, appears to have little relevance. This suggests that interventions to change Interprofessional Practice need to include a focus on ad hoc as well as planned forms of communication.

  • The dual faces of service user participation: Implications for empowerment processes in Interprofessional Practice
    Journal of Social Work, 2012
    Co-Authors: Susanne Kvarnström, Berith Hedberg, Elisabet Cedersund
    Abstract:

    • Summary: This article reports on an empirical research study exploring and describing variations in how front-line practitioners perceive service user participation (SUP), specifically in Interprofessional Practice. The settings comprised three Swedish health and social care organizations where the professionals worked in Interprofessional teams: a program for chronic pain rehabilitation, a program for surgical treatment of obesity, and a short-term municipal home for older adults. The qualitative study design was informed by a phenomenographic approach and conducted as semi-structured individual interviews with 15 professionals representing nine professions, including social work.• Findings: The main findings show seven qualitative variations in understanding of SUP: 1) inclusion in activities and social events, 2) obtaining guidance, 3) having self-determination and choice, 4) getting confirmation from and contact with professionals, 5) negotiating for adjustment, 6) personal responsibility through in...
