Research shows that bedside interdisciplinary rounds (IDR) improve communication and foster collaboration between interprofessional members of the care team. In this study, resident and attending physicians shared their perspectives on IDR in an academic hospital. Both residents and attendings felt that IDR improved patient-centered care. Residents reported IDR felt like just an additional task they had to perform despite also recognizing the benefits.
