2.Compare and contrast how professional practice with collaborative
practice
 Case study and effective team work:
 In order to work collaboratively in the clinical setting , Hesse-Biber
(2016), suggested that each health professionals must involve in
effective communication , convey relevant information with each
other , resolve conflicts by acknowledging the difference of each
other and involve in the share decision making.
In this case study, the elements that impacted team work include
• Limited communication between professionals since disruption
of effective communication observed between case manager and
the line manager, the nurse.
• No professional support regarding complexity of care of Jason
• lack of proper home arrangements for rehabilitation and case
manager is unaware of progress of proper home arrangements
• nursing professional considered the care as complex rather than
seeking clinical help or perspective of others
