Abstract

1. Research on working with a multidisciplinary team in inpatient mental health care is underdeveloped. 2. Knowledge of how to work as part of a team is taken for granted within the realm of professional training. 3. In effective teams, members value the support, knowledge, and professional development that membership offers. 4. Training teams to be more effective requires diverse educational strategies.
