Medical education has evolved through the years with the emergence of an emphasis on interprofessionalism to improve multidisciplinary healthcare communication and to enhance collaborative practice, especially among physicians and nurses. Whereas successful stories of physician-nurse collaboration have been linked to positive patient outcomes (Irwin et al., 2012; Manojlovich and deCicco, 2007), poor relationships have been associated with unhealthy work environments and fragmented communication that may jeopardize the quality of patient care (Larson, 1999).Source
