Abstract/Short Description
Background: •Effective interprofessional teamwork is essential for quality patient care [1], and within-team feedback improves team performance [2]. •Learners trained to assess peers are more confident and skilled at evaluating others and better prepared to provide meaningful feedback to their colleagues when they enter the workforce [3,4]. •This is particularly important in interprofessional teams where tensions between professional groups can create unique challenges [5].
