Care Teams: Asthma and COPD
Care teams are crucial for every aspect of healthcare. This course will review care team best practices which contain three important pillars: Collaboration, communication, and role definition as they relate to asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). With effective care teams, patient outcomes also improve, including decreased safety events, preventable diagnostic errors, and readmissions to hospitals. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), chronic lower respiratory conditions like COPD and asthma are the sixth leading cause of death (CDC, 2022b). Therefore, it is important to recognize the need for effective healthcare team approaches to improve patient outcomes for those with asthma and COPD.
