There are many different types of interdisciplinary health care teams. All work together to optimize patient care. Some examples of these teams include core teams, contingency teams, coordinating teams, ancillary teams and support teams. When these teams are formed they go through a number of stages. They begin in the forming stage and next move to the norming stage. After they settle into the norming stage, a conflict often arises and they move into the storming stage. After they figure out how to settle the conflict, they move into the last stage, which is the performing stage.

The statement that BEST describes the error in the paragraph is:

"From the forming state, teams move into the storming stage and then the norming stage."

This is incorrect because the typical progression of team development is from forming to storming, then to norming, and finally to performing. The correct order should not have norming following storming.
