Colocation and Scientific Collaboration: Evidence from… : DASH Story 2013-09-13
Story content
I am a Family Physician in Ontario where much debate is developing on the success (or failure) of primary care collaborative teams over the last 5 years. While these teams have varying structures they are often "virtual" and not co-located. I have a team that is co-located and highly successful. I believe some of our successes are due to mingling and face time of various professionals that ordinarily would not be in physical contact. It is with great interest that I have searched for your evidence that may support this hunch. As we tackle the challenges of meeting the emerging demands for primary healthcare we would do well to consider this information.
