TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Chapter 2. Types of Healthcare Teams A1 - Mosser, Gordon A1 - Begun, James W. Y1 - 2014 N1 - T2 - Understanding Teamwork in Health Care AB - In this chapter, we explore the different types of work teams that are encountered in health care. This is not an exercise in classification for its own sake. Different types of teams have different capabilities, different limitations, and different needs for planning, participation, training, and management. Knowing the type of team at hand helps team members, leaders, and sponsors to ensure that the team is performing as effectively as it can. As they seek to perform well in their own roles, team members, leaders, and sponsors as well as senior leaders all benefit from understanding the characteristics of different types of teams.
