A prize of £1500 to an Interprofessional team working within the primary and health and social care care community in the UK or abroad
The General Practice and Primary Health Care Section Council, RSM and The Centre for the Advancement of Interprofesssional Education (CAIPE) will jointly award this annual award to an interprofessional team working within the community demonstrating outstanding principles of collaborative working.
Background
Dr John Horder was both a past President of the General Practice with Primary Health Care Section of the Royal Society of Medicine and the founder of CAIPE, serving as its first Chairman then President.These organisations share his values.
The award
The annual award is offered to a team working in the community and submissions will be assessed by representatives from both organisations. Candidates are not limited to the UK but the documentation should be completed in English. The award will consist of a prize of £1500 (£750 annually from each organisation).
Submission
The submitting teams are asked to produce two documents:
- Document 1 will consist of a factual and descriptive report on all or part of their interprofessional team working being presented for consideration.
