Book synopsis

Interprofessional working is one of the core subjects taught across early years, education, health and social care programmes as a result of the move towards a more integrated workforce supporting children. Written by a multi-professional team of contributors and grounded by their experience in interprofessional work, the book relates the rhetoric of interprofessionalism to discussion and examples of practice. §The chapters are grouped into related strands of context, learning, working and current and future challenges and are illustrated with case studies of practice dilemmas. Each chapter is written so that the reader can consider their personal response to the themes of the chapter.§The authors, drawing on their experiences of a wide range of professional heritages and contexts, propose that a new professionalism is required in an interprofessional world. They emphasize that it is only by using interprofessional understanding and awareness when engaging with practice issues that professionals will develop the safety and quality in work with children that is now required. The book argues that individuals cannot learn to work interprofessionally in the complex, ever changing world of services for children and families without gaining considerable understanding of interprofessionalism and internalizing appropriate values and principles. § Contributors: Sharif Al-Rousi, Annie Clouston, Ian Duckmanton, Sally Graham, Joy Jarvis, Karen John, Maureen Longley, Daryl Maisey, Paty Paliokosta, Anne Rawlings, Sajni Sharma, Ute Ward, Sue Webster
