Improved Communication: They foster better communication among team members, reducing errors and enhancing patient safety. Holistic Care: By incorporating multiple perspectives, IDRs ensure that all aspects of a patient's health are considered. Patient Outcomes: Studies show that interdisciplinary rounds can lead to improved patient outcomes, shorter hospital stays, and reduced readmission rates. Professional Development: These rounds offer a learning opportunity for healthcare providers to understand the roles and expertise of other disciplines.
