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 />
