Which of the following best represents the IPE team for Subacute Rehab?

Interprofessional collaboration is essential in subacute rehab because patients often have complex needs that span medical management, functional restoration, and social support. A true IPE team brings together a range of disciplines to coordinate care across daily activities, mobility, communication, and discharge planning. The most representative team includes occupational therapy, physical therapy, social work, nursing, speech-language pathology, physician, orthotist, prosthetist, respiratory therapist, recreational therapy, and pharmacist. Each role contributes: OT and PT guide mobility and activities of daily living; Speech handles communication and swallowing; Social Work supports psychosocial needs and discharge resources; the Nurse provides ongoing care and coordination; the Physician oversees medical management; Orthotist/Prosthetist address devices and mobility aids; Respiratory Therapist supports breathing and airway management; Recreational Therapist promotes engagement and functional participation; Pharmacist optimizes medications and safety. Other options omit several of these essential disciplines, making them incomplete representations of an IPE team in subacute rehab.
