Changing the conversation: impact of guidelines designed to optimize interprofessional facilitation of simulation-based team training.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Interprofessional simulation-based team training (ISBTT) is commonly used to optimize interprofessional teamwork in healthcare. The literature documents the benefits of ISBTT, yet effective interprofessional collaboration continues to be challenged by complex hierarchies and power dynamics.
