CPAT: Collaborative Practice Assessment Tool
Submitted by National Center... on Nov 4, 2013 - 11:05am CST
CPAT was developed to assess levels of collaboration intended to assist clinical teams in identifying strengths and weaknesses in their collaborative practice thereby providing opportunities for focused educational interventions.
The Collaborative Practice Assessment Tool (CPAT) is a 57-item tool with a 7-point scale that assesses collaborative practice. The tool has 8 subscales: mission, meaningful purpose and goals, general relationships, team leadership, general role, responsibilities and autonomy, communication and information exchange, community linkages and coordination of care, decision‐making and conflict management and patient involvement.
The CPAT tool is available here.
For additional information about the CPAT tool, please vist the Queen's University CPAT website.
