CAIPER Trainings

Team Care Connections primary care workforce training magazines are designed to initiate discussion and generate avenues for new solutions among primary care team members and broader learning communities. The digital magazines feature short, engaging, and practical articles that can be read in any order. Icons throughout the magazines provide a map to interactive features such as videos, expert commentary, lightboxes, tips and tools.

Real-world scenarios and examples provided by health practitioners present team-based strategies for tackling common challenges faced by primary care teams working with high-risk and vulnerable populations.

For healthcare providers, teamwork is a must. Knowing what information to communicate, when to involve other professions, and which services matter makes a critical difference to patients and families who often get lost as they traverse between the many providers who care for them and move from clinic to hospital to home. Improving Team-Based Care for Vulnerable Populations offers a modern, real-time way for providers to think and learn about teamwork together./p>
