Identifying practical approaches to the normalisation of interprofessional collaboration in rural hospitals: A qualitative study among health professionals.

This qualitative study explores the ideas and experiences of interprofessional collaboration (IPC) among health professionals in rural public hospitals and to propagate its normalization into practice by identifying existing or suggested solutions. The literature focuses largely on the barriers and facilitators to IPC in metropolitan areas and there is room to identify more practical responses for implementing solutions. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 13 healthcare professionals (October 2018-March 2019).
