Teamwork<br />

“Teams are two or more individuals who make decisions, whose members<br />

have specific roles, perform specific tasks, and interact or coordinate to<br />

achieve a common goal or outcome.<br />

“They differ from small groups in that teams act collectively due to task<br />

interdependency. Teamwork requires members of the team to adapt to one<br />

another in an effort to accomplish goals. Medical teams possess<br />

specialized knowledge and skills and often function under conditions of<br />

high workload.”<br />
