How Does Multidisciplinary Care Improve Patient Outcomes?
By pooling their expertise, the team can create a more comprehensive care plan that addresses all facets of a patient's health. For example, while a doctor might focus on diagnosing the illness, a nurse can monitor the patient's daily health status, a pharmacist can manage medication, and a physical therapist can aid in mobility and rehabilitation. This collective effort leads to more accurate diagnoses, effective treatment plans, and better overall health outcomes for the patient.
