Opis

Collaborative working is on the rise in social work and health care these days, especially in complicated areas such as safeguarding children, working with community mental health services, and providing services for the elderly or disabled children. But collaborative working brings with it a number of practical difficulties. This book focuses on interprofessional education (IPE), which is generally seen as a key solution to those difficulties. It provides a thorough introduction to IPE in health care and social work and examines research evidence in detail, providing essential practical advice.
