Team work has shown positive outcomes. All of the following are examples of these patient outcomes except.

Rationale: A. This is a correct example of a positive outcome of effective teamwork. Coordinated care, clear communication, and efficient task delegation help reduce delays in treatment and discharge planning, shortening hospital stays. B.
