Interdisciplinary Healthcare Teams

Interdisciplinary healthcare teams are groups of diverse health professionals—such as doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers—working together to provide comprehensive patient care. They collaborate by sharing knowledge, insights, and responsibilities to address all aspects of a patient's health, from medical treatment to emotional and social support. This teamwork ensures coordinated, personalized care, improves health outcomes, and helps patients navigate complex healthcare needs more effectively. The team’s collective expertise fosters a holistic approach, focusing on the patient as a whole person rather than just isolated conditions.
