The team—consisting of students from pharmacy and nursing, nutrition, veterinary medicine and physical therapy, as well as a patient advocate and team advisor—travelled to Halifax for the national competition this past weekend, just six weeks after the provincial competition.
The team was ultimately successful in presenting a plan of action that was interprofessional and focused on patient-family centered care. They did this by working collaboratively and applying their skills, knowledge, values and attitudes to their problem-based case.
