Other examples of multi professional team is
In Education you would have Educational Psychologists, specialist teachers. they would be provided by the local authority.
Health professionals - for example, school doctors, paediatricians, pyschiatrists, clinical psychologists, nurses, health visitors, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech and language therapists.
Social care professionals - for example social workers, residential social workers, family support workers, educational welfare officers
Professionals from the voluntary sector - for example, Barnardos, Scope, RNIB, National Autistic Society.
An example of multi professional would be when different professions work towards meeting the needs of a child at Early Action Plus, School Action Plus or when a child has a Statement of Special Educational needs.
Hope this isn't to confusing have a look at the Every Child Matters web site it may explain it their. Good Luck with it
