title: Developing an innovative care delivery model: interprofessional practice teams.
abstract: An interprofessional project team at the University Health Network (UHN) completed a project to develop an Interprofessional Patient-Centred Practice (IPCP) Framework, explore enablers and barriers to collaborative practice and recommend a model of care delivery and interprofessional practice. The following recommendations were made: adopt proposed IPCP Framework as the basis for developing interprofessional teams, implement an IPCP tool kit as a resource, develop evidence-based interventions across health care teams, and educate health professionals on IPCP.
