Interdisciplinary Plan Proposal
This proposal outlines a strategic initiative to integrate recent graduates into the
healthcare workforce and ensure the deployment of safe nursing staffing levels. Its objectives
include establishing optimal nurse-to-patient ratios, implementing flexible scheduling protocols,
enhancing staff morale, and improving overall patient satisfaction metrics (Perkins, 2021). The
primary aim is to develop an evidence-based, interdisciplinary framework that mitigates staff
burnout through improved collaboration and communication among healthcare professionals.
Objective
The objective is to develop and implement strategies aimed at retaining current nursing
personnel and recruiting additional registered nurses. This involves integrating new graduates
into specialized roles through targeted training and education programs, with compensation
structures adjusted according to experience, educational attainment, and advanced training. Such
measures are intended to enhance nurse motivation and competency in patient care delivery
(Thomas & Renter, 2021). Establishing a resilient organizational culture focused on nurse
retention serves as a proactive approach to reduce turnover-related costs, promote operational
efficiency, optimize resource utilization, ensure patient safety, and improve clinical performance
metrics. This plan aims to foster a collaborative, sustainable environment conducive to effective
interdisciplinary teamwork.
Background and History
According to BMC Medical Education (2025), students identified prior personal
experiences—such as their own or a relative's illness—as significant determinants influencing
their career choice. Observing firsthand the clinical responsibilities undertaken by healthcare
professionals and the resultant patient care outcomes fostered a desire to engage in socially

beneficial roles aligned with societal service. Prior to selecting their specific medical field,
students characterized themselves as highly empathetic individuals, motivated by a desire to
assist others or demonstrate caregiving behaviors, exemplified by familial responsibilities. They
noted that such dispositions facilitated a continued commitment to caring professions. Several
participants reported that their comprehension of this motivation developed during their
academic coursework and clinical internships. Additionally, some students experienced
ambivalence regarding specialty selection but ultimately opted for nursing, influenced by
personal preferences and comparative assessments of professional roles, responsibilities, and
implications for their private lives.
Counterargument
Although expanding the frequency of interdisciplinary meetings and collaborative efforts
may elevate the workload experienced by nursing staff and potentially diminish their perceived
entitlement to organizational benefits, as well as induce feelings of overwhelm, these sessions
can be systematically structured to optimize efficiency and emphasize actionable outputs.
Rebuttal
Even though the concern regarding planning a interdisciplinary collaboration teams to
ensure effective implementation of a team nursing model necessitates the presence of several
foundational work environment components, including sufficient staffing levels comprising
registered nurses (RNs) and support personnel, workflow processes that facilitate optimal
interprofessional collaboration, institutional support for the development of RN delegation
competencies, and a safety-oriented organizational culture that promotes the well-being of all
team members (Brown et al., 2021). Ensuring appropriate staffing ratios across all team roles is
essential. The efficacy of a model reliant on a multidisciplinary team with diverse educational
