Interprofessional collaboration is one of the keys to optimal patient care. Neuropsychologists and general practitioners are still not used to working together. The recent introduction of coordination and referral platforms has facilitated links between these two professions in the care of children with neurodevelopmental disorders. This article describes a profession that is often overlooked by general practitioners. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ten advanced practice nurses are already working at the Guillaume-Régnier hospital in Rennes. As part of an internship at this facility, students in the second year of the IPA master's degree in psychiatry and mental health at the University of Rennes were interested in the dynamics surrounding this still recent profession, the diversity of the missions performed, and inter-professional collaboration. An online survey was distributed to IPAs, and four interviews were conducted with healthcare professionals working with them., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

The psychologist working in an institution plays a specific role within a multidisciplinary team, where skills are multiple but complementary. As part of a holistic approach, the psychologist's position in relation to other team members, the different functions he or she occupies and his or her ethical responsibility are essential elements in the support provided. Whether supporting professionals or caring for patients, the psychologist brings unique resources to the relational space., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

The article reports that the 5th edition of the National Day of Nurses in Advanced Practice organized by the French National Association of Nurses in Advanced Practice took place on December 13 and 14, 2021 at the Ministry of Solidarity and Health. Topics include considered that on this occasion, the accent was placed on the major interest of interprofessionalism with the central theme "Let's cultivate our IP Partnership".

Cette étude a sondé 46 médecins de famille québécois quant à leurs pratiques pour l'évaluation et le dépistage des conducteurs à risque afin 1) de mieux comprendre leur niveau de compétence perçu; 2) de recenser les difficultés rencontrées dans le processus de prise de décision et 3) de documenter leurs besoins et attitudes quant à une collaboration plus étroite avec les ergothérapeutes. Les participants (femmes : 84,8 %; moyenne d'expérience : 15,7 (±12,1) ans) ont répondu à un sondage en ligne de 30 questions. Les résultats de cette étude démontrent que malgré un certain confort à effectuer l'évaluation et le dépistage des conducteurs à risque, les médecins ne se considèrent pas comme les professionnels les mieux qualifiés pour ce faire. Ils reconnaissent également le rôle que jouent les ergothérapeutes dans le dépistage de cette clientèle et l'intervention auprès d'elle. Ils voient ainsi la pertinence d'avoir accès aux services de ces professionnels en soins de première ligne.

Résumé: Objectif. Une démarche de coopération Ville/Hôpital a été initiée pour améliorer la prise en charge des patients en sortie d'hospitalisation et les relations interprofessionnelles. L'objectif est de créer une dynamique et des échanges entre les pharmaciens officinaux et les acteurs hospitaliers pour améliorer la continuité de la prise en charge du patient à sa sortie et proposer des actions correctives et préventives. Méthode. Les prescriptions de sortie des patients hospitalisés sont analysées en recueillant des événements indésirables selon deux méthodes. Les dysfonctionnements rencontrés par la Pharmacie à Usage Intérieur sont collectés via le logiciel de gestion des risques de l'établissement et ceux rencontrés par les officines via les fiches progrès officinales. Résultats. Un Comité de Retour d'Expérience (CREX) entre la Pharmacie à Usage Intérieur (PUI) du Centre Hospitalier de l'Agglomération Montargoise (CHAM) et les officines de l'agglomération a été créé en 2016, avec l'appui du service qualité et gestion des risques de l'établissement. Deux CREX sont organisés par an pour analyser les événements indésirables rencontrés par la PUI et les officines. Depuis 2018, 258 événements indésirables ont été analysés. Les principales difficultés rencontrées par les officinaux sont des erreurs ou des absences de durée (21 %), de dosage (20 %) et de posologie (12 %) sur les ordonnances. Des actions de communication et de sensibilisation ont été mises en œuvre auprès des médecins hospitaliers pour arrêter les prescriptions manuscrites et pour être vigilants sur leurs ordonnances de sortie. Une communication a été engagée entre la PUI et les officines pour les informer lorsqu'un médicament est nouvellement disponible en ville ou d'une rupture de médicament. Conclusion. Ce projet s'inscrit dans une démarche globale d'amélioration des relations ville/hôpital. Objective. A seamless care approach has been initiated to improve Patients' care after hospital discharge and interprofessional relations. The aim was to create and favor exchanges between pharmacists and hospital's stakeholders, to improve the continuity of the patients' care after hospital discharge and to propose corrective and preventive actions. Methods. The patient discharge prescription and adverse events met by hospital and private pharmacies were analyzed. The collection of adverse events was carried out using two methods. The difficulties encountered by the Hospital Pharmacy arewere collected via the institution's risk management software and those encountered by the private pharmacies via the officinal progress document. Results. Experience Feedback Committee (known as Comité de Retour d'Expérience or CREX in French) between Hospital Pharmacy and Montargis community pharmacies was created in 2016, with the support of the quality and risk management department of the hospital. Two CREX a year are organized to analyze adverse events. Since 2018, 258 adverse events have been analyzed. The main difficulties are errors or absences of duration (21%) and dosage (32%). Communication and awareness-raising actions have been implemented with hospital's doctors to stop handwritten prescriptions and to be vigilant about their discharge orders. A communication was initiated between the hospital pharmacy and community pharmacies to inform them about drug shortage. Conclusion. This project of city-hospital cooperation improve the continuity of the patients' care after hospital discharge and interprofessional relations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé: La médecine interne, par sa vision globale, représente idéalement la continuité hospitalière de la médecine générale ambulatoire. Mais ses contours ont évolué au cours du temps. Les objectifs de cette étude étaient d'analyser les attentes des médecins généralistes vis-à-vis de la médecine interne, ainsi que d'évaluer la qualité de la communication entre les deux spécialités. Internal medicine, favoring a global approach to the sick adults, ideally represents the continuity between family medicine and hospital practice. But its outlines have evolved over time. The objectives of this study were to analyze the expectations of general practitioners (GPs) regarding internal medicine, as well as to assess the quality of communication between the two specialties.

Introduction: The goal of this study was to meet a small, remote emergency department's need to reflect on the minimum threshold of services to offer. The study's main objectives were to 1) provide a statistical profile of the emergency services in Fermont, Quebec, 2) assess the staff's and users' perception of the threshold of services offered and 3) propose solutions for improving care and services. Methods: This case study was conducted with a participatory approach and a mixed methodology. We compared the results from a questionnaire on the emergency services that was validated during a previous study with the results concerning the other rural emergency services in Quebec as well as with national and provincial recommendations. The questionnaire concerned users' sociodemographic characteristics, the hospital's and the emergency services' descriptors, the services available locally, and the physician and nurse staff. Interviews were also carried out with 33 people (health care professionals, policy-makers and citizens). Results: Fermont's emergency department is smaller than the average rural emergency department in Quebec. They have resources that are in some respects comparable to those of other emergency departments and in line with the recommendations; in other respects, their resources are rather limited. Respondents emphasized how important it is to take into account the environment's specific features when establishing the minimum threshold of services. The proposed solutions would promote collaboration, break down silos within professional practice and focus on training. Conclusion: Fermont's case aside, this exploratory case study highlights how important it is to adopt a pluralistic, participatory and local approach in order to support reflection on the minimum threshold of services in remote emergency departments and to improve their overall performance.

Objective : To identify and compare physician-pharmacist perceptions concerning mutual collaboration in hospital settings. Methods : Two similar questionnaires were emailed to all French speaking physicians and pharmacists working in Swiss hospitals where medical-directors/chief-pharmacists had approved the study. Questions were developed based on previous physician interviews. Results : 14/18 medical-directors and 16/16 chief-pharmacists gave permission for the study. 244 (11%) physicians and 115 (74%) pharmacists answered the surveys. 49% physicians estimated interacting together <5x/year and only 52% contact the pharmacy when they have drug-related questions. Pharmacists considered that there was more contact than this between themselves and physicians. 97% physicians highly value knowing their colleagues, but 39% have trouble identifying pharmacists. 85% physicians would like an increased pharmacist presence in wards. Pharmacists misperceive the importance physicians give to meeting and knowing them. 59% physicians and 87% pharmacists believe physicians need more information about pharmacists' activities in order to better collaborate. 91% physicians expressed an interest in collaborating with pharmacists and 79% agreed that their current human relations are good. 96% participants consider pharmacists' global competences to be good. Pharmacist participation during ward rounds is well perceived. Conclusion : Participation rates in the questionnaire give a snapshot of current physician-pharmacist collaboration; pharmacists being the more concerned. Results show an infrequent pharmacist-physician interaction. Physicians' knowledge about pharmacists' activities should be improved as understanding one another's professional roles leads to better collaborative relationships. Reasons why physicians do not contact the pharmacist when they have drug-related question should be sought, as poor communication and failure to seek information has been shown to have negative consequences for patients.

Introduction: The healthcare law 2016-41 from 26 January 2016 prescribes, as the central element of the French healthcare system, the coordination of care. In the field of therapeutic patient education (TPE), the aim is to strengthen its continuity between the hospital and the city, by associating all complementary opportunities with the usual and majority place of education that the hospital represents. In order to explore an hypothesis of outsourcing of the hospital's ETP from the hospital to the city with the intention of developing a culture of decompartmentalization, it is necessary to ensure the quality of the relationship between the different parties concerned. Objectives: The objective of this study is to raise expectations and conditions with respect to such a hypothesis. Methods: A qualitative and inductive study, exploratory and propositional, was conducted from January to March 2017 on a sample of 26 therapeutic education actors in the city and hospital, including the patient. Results: If the city/hospital relationship is experienced as compartmentalized and competitive, the complementarity of these two systems is desired and structured in an organized way around the outsourcing of hospital expertise. Discussion: The results lead us to think that this outsourcing requires cooperation. Conclusion: Decompartmentalizing the hospital towards the city is possible and indispensable, especially in FTE. Nevertheless, it is necessary to define a framework for this collaboration between the city and the hospital, whose cooperative outsourcing could be a proposal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Interprofessional collaboration is essential to enhance quality of care and patient safety. It is clearly defined and requires the following 6 competencies: role clarification, teamwork, interprofessional conflict resolution, collaborative leadership, interprofessional communication and patient/client/family/community-centered care. Through different variations of a clinical scenario in primary care, we propose to demonstrate the importance of putting these skills into practice and to analyze the opportunities to reflect on the different types of interprofessional interactions depending on the complexity of the situation., Competing Interests: Les auteurs n’ont déclaré aucun conflit d’intérêts en relation avec cet article

The Mermoz multi-professional health center is a healthcare practice, including 24 professionals, on the outskirts of a major French metropolis. This article presents the challenges faced from the idea to the implementation of an interprofessional primary care offer. The difficulty of freeing up time for the construction of the common real estate and sanitary project has been overcome thanks to powerful motivations: the desire for more interprofessionality in practices that are sometimes fragmented, the need for support in the management of complex patients, the pleasure of being a group, and the improvement of healthcare. The horizontal mode of governance enabled a health care offer adapted to the specific health needs of a multicultural and precarious sector to be combined with a place for teaching and research., Competing Interests: Les auteurs n’ont déclaré aucun conflit d’intérêts en relation avec cet article.

Objectives: The objective of this work is to assess the impact of a simulation session on the ability of pharmacy and medicine students in general practice to communicate in the resolution of patient-facing situations., Methods: The evaluation of the impact of the session on the representation of the professions used a questionnaire to be completed before and after the session by the students. The evaluation of the impact of the session on the perception of communication and associated skills was based on an audio recording of the debriefings, which, after transcription and thematic analysis, was used as a preliminary analysis for the drafting of a questionnaire proposed the following year. This questionnaire focused on the issues of interprofessional communication and on the seminar process., Results: During the 2018 and 2019 seminars, 518 students attended, 39% were pharmacy students (n=201) and 61% were medical students (n=317). The majority of medical students initially responded that physician-pharmacist communication was confraternal and rare. More pharmacy students felt that the quality of the physician-pharmacist relationship was poor. However, there was a marked improvement for all students on this aspect of communication after the seminar. Both groups also generally agreed that this relationship could be improved., Conclusions: The evaluation shows that an interprofessional simulation program improves the ability of pharmacy and general practice students to communicate in patient-facing situations., (Copyright © 2022 Académie Nationale de Pharmacie.

Background: “Questions in Practice” (QUIP) rounds are used to encourage residents to quickly find, evaluate, and incorporate information into clinical practice. It is an opportunity for residents to identify a clinical question, research the answer, present the evidence, and discuss how to apply it to practice. The value of using this method to teach residents has not been evaluated. Methods: A sampling of all first and second-year family medicine residents enrolled in the Memorial University Family Medicine program were invited to participate in the survey. The survey gathered information about the residents’ current experiences with answering clinical questions, their experience during QUIP rounds, and the value of an interdisciplinary approach. Results: The response rate was 91% (42/46). Medical websites (45%) and journal article indexes (34%) were most often used. Through QUIPs, 50% of the students identified new methods to retrieve answers, 80% considered it a useful learning experience, 75% had improved confidence, and clinical knowledge improved in 97%. Conclusions: Residents are familiar with many general sources of medical information, and QUIPs helped improve confidence in their knowledge and ability to answer questions. QUIPs appear to be a useful tool for teaching information resources and how to interpret and apply evidence to clinical situations.

This paper seeks to answer the author's question whether it is more appropriate to have a music teacher or a music therapist with students with special needs within the Quebec education system. This issue has been raised after the author identified three factors at the source of the problem while at the same time asserting that a thin line, still to be defined, exists between both professions. Finally, the author shows that a collaborative work should result from this reflection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
