The Cambridge Dictionary defines teamwork as 'the combined actions of a group of people working together effectively to achieve a goal.' As a dementia care specialist, you understand the importance of teamwork while working with other healthcare professionals on multidisciplinary teams and with caregivers and family members. The interviewer asks your definition of teamwork to see that you are a team player and value working with others. Your definition does not need to match the Cambridge Dictionary version, but you want to relay the importance of working together to achieve a common goal. Explain how you would describe teamwork to someone who did not understand the word.
