An education intervention to improve nursing students' understanding of medication safety
2015, Nurse Education in PracticeCitation Excerpt :However, much of the literature affords a narrow view of multidisciplinary work by focussing on a particular aspect. For example, Varpio et al. (2008) focus on interprofessional communication related to medication errors and Manias and Street (2001) investigated communication processes through written orders. Traditionally undergraduate education of healthcare professionals has occurred in silos (Barnsteiner et al., 2007; Engum and Jeffries, 2012), with few opportunities for interprofessional collaboration (Barnsteiner et al., 2007).
The effects of physical environments in medical wards on medication communication processes affecting patient safety
2014, Health and PlaceCitation Excerpt :Our intention in the study is to understand the contextualised medication communication practices and broad social relationships surrounding these communication practices, by making physical space visible in the research process and contesting individuals' use of physical space. Critical ethnography involves participants engaging in the process of reflexivity to make meanings of their practices in their own social world (Manias and Street, 2001). In this study, participants reflected on the research data and challenged their daily practices and working environments.
Interprofessional care in intensive care settings and the factors that impact it: Results from a scoping review of ethnographic studies
2013, Journal of Critical CareCitation Excerpt :One author invited readers and researchers to reconsider historical hierarchies and discourses that do not take into account current interprofessional dynamics and the actual blurring of roles, as the medical basis of nursing has increased and standards for doctors to care have changed [23], whereas another showed the interreliance of nurses and doctors in several areas, including medication management [28,29]. Overall, hierarchical relationships are described in most studies as hindering care and as potentially harmful [20,22-25,28-31], whereas processes that flatten hierarchies [31] or help clinicians bond [27] are seen as helpful, and top-down decisions perceived to be physician-driven as invitations to resistance [20,24,29,30,32]. More on resistance below.
