Interprofessional Communication and Collaboration 481
You  represent the nursing department on a newly formed interdisciplinary  team to look at medication errors and medication safety. You are one of  seven team members. The Pharmacy Director, also a team member, has a  very assertive communication style. The Pharmacy Director dominates  meeting conversations and does not appear open to adopting new processes  requiring the pharmacy department to take on additional work and  responsibility. Instead, the Pharmacy Director redirects the ideas back  to you and states, “This is a nursing responsibility.”

a) Redirect the dominance of communication by one team member.
b) Avoid accepting full ownership and responsibility for all ideas directed to the nursing department.
 Question #2

    communication in this situation.
