- Abstract: This concept analysis seeks to clarify the interprofessional collaboration role of school nurses and provide a definition using Rodgers' evolutionary method. A literature search was utilized to determine the interprofessional collaboration role and its notable attributes, antecedents, and consequences. Defining attributes of interprofessional collaboration include values/ethics for interprofessional practice, roles and responsibilities of a school nurse, communication, and teamwork, which explain and constitute the definition of the concept. Antecedents include care coordination, case management, case finding and collaboration with consequences of health outcomes, interdisciplinary mobilization, and school health services integration were recognized in the text as those events or aspects that occur before and after interprofessional collaboration takes place in a practical situation, respectively. Indeed, this paper adds and builds further understanding of the concept, potentially guiding a standard reference to the term, and facilitating further knowledge on how school nurses and other health care providers can effectively apply interprofessional collaboration in various settings.
