Research Recommendations |
4.1 Researchers partner with governments, professional associations, regulatory bodies, unions, health service organizations and educational institutions to conduct research into conflict within Health-care teams. |
4.2 Interprofessional researchers study the:
- Range of impacts of the different types of conflict in the workplace on individuals, patient/client, organizational and system outcomes, including quality of care, patient safety, recruitment and retention; Prevalence and incidence of conflict, including an understanding of the different types of conflict, in workplaces throughout all types of organizational settings and sectors;

4.3 Researchers develop, implement, and evaluate a conflict intervention. |
4.4 Using effective knowledge translation strategies, researchers report research findings and outcomes back to their partnering government bodies, professional associations, regulatory bodies, unions, Health-care organizations, educational institutions, and the individuals who participated in the research. |
