At MyRehab Dual Diagnosis Addiction Centres, we convene spontaneous Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) meetings to tackle sudden patient needs efficiently. Here’s a step-by-step look at our approach:
Rapid Team Mobilization _What Quick Steps Do We Take When a Patient Issue Emerges?_ We immediately assemble our MDT, including therapists, medical staff, and other specialists, to focus promptly on the patient’s situation.
In-Depth Issue Assessment How Do We Evaluate Patient Concerns on the Spot?_ The team leads an in-depth review of the patient’s latest developments as soon as the meeting commences. This action ensures we’re all on the same page regarding the patient’s status.
Exchange of Key Insights _How Do the MDT’s Insights Shape Patient Care?_ MDT members actively share observations and expertise, crafting a full-circle view of the patient’s needs through collective wisdom.
Reassessment of Goals _Do We Quickly Adapt Patient Goals When Necessary?_ We’re always ready to realign treatment goals, exploring if recent events call for a change in the patient’s recovery trajectory.
Active Decision Process_After Combining Insights, How Do We Proceed?_ The MDT joins forces to make informed decisions, often refining therapies or tweaking care provisions to best serve the patient.
Strategic Action Steps _How Do We Ensure Decisions Lead to Action?_ We detail the next steps clearly, distributing tasks amongst team members to actively implement the updated plan.
Open Communication How Do We Keep Patient-Family Communications Clear and Supportive?_ We discuss the best ways to update patients and families, aiming for clarity and support as we communicate any new changes.
