Abstract
Pharmaceutical care can hardly be provided without collaboration with other healthcare providers. In its optimal form, interprofessional collaboration entails that providers discuss mutual goals, resources, and responsibility for patient care. In order to support this collaboration, interprofessional education is essential. Collaborating in healthcare is a competency and can be learned. One of the central elements in the competence “collaborator in healthcare” is interprofessional communication . This competency is characterized by different aspects, which apply whatever the medium used.
